Shower is in 2 weeks and.....

Hey guys! So my shower is 2 weeks from today, and out of curiosity (I know I'm bad) I checked my registry online. I have 120 total gifts (some are small little things) and only 30 things are purchased!!! Do people usually wait last minute to purchase gifts? Am I freaking out too soon?? HELP!!!

I'm sure people wait till last minute. I'm one of them, always buy my gift a couple days before.

For my engagement party, most of my gifts weren't purchased until the day before or even the day of. Don't worry about it!

I think most people wait until the last minute. I usually like to buy right away because I want to have the most options.

Pretty much everyone says the week before is when the gifts start flying.

Yeah I'm hoping the same because we just don't have many things purchased at all. Mine is August 9th but I've really heard things fly at the end that's what everyone keeps saying.

I always end up getting the gifts like a day or 2 before im sure a few days before you will see a big pop in items purchased

My shower was two weeks ago it wasn't really until the week of the shower especially the few days before where things started to go. I went from 118 gifts purchased the day before my shower to 150 day of my shower. Don't worry a lot of people are last minute shoppers buying the gifts on their way to the shower.

Yep! Just a lot of last minute shoppers out there. I'm guilty of it too. But after I walked into that shower thinking I was not getting any of our dishes we registered for, 5 place settings were purchased day of out of 12 we registered for. I might just start shopping a bit earlier cause I now know the pains of registry stalking lol.
