Has anyone made snide remarks to you or your family about your registry? (where you registered, what you registered for, etc?)

Re: Snide remarks about your registry?
i really didnt want a registry, i just made one to shut my family up so i dont really care....but i overheard someone in century 21 say yesterday, 'She even has her registry at TARGET! Can you believe it? She is so cheap!' I was tempted to say something nasty, but decided to let it go, lol.

Re: Snide remarks about your registry?
I'm sure people will hav snide remarks about mine. FH and I have a lot of the everyday stuff and we kinds bought it together so we like it. A lot of what is going on our registry are 'wish' list items...one of them includes a Dyson like you
They can comment away...or just give me $$ if they think the gift is too much. I much rather than give $$ since there is very limited room in my apt. and at his place for more stuff.
People will comment no matter what...that's the bottom line.

Re: Snide remarks about your registry?
My sister made some remarks about me picking expensive things. Honestly, I just looked at both of my registeries, and almost everything is under $50!!!! I think I need to pick some more expensive things, honestly, for those who want to spend more.
I have a dyson on mine too - my sister commented on that too - but coming from the person I know with the most expensive taste, I don't know what she's thinking.

Re: Snide remarks about your registry?
I've had a few comments... HERE'S MY THING
people(<- meaning people making comments) - this is a WISH LIST!!! This does not mean that we EXPECT to get ALL or even MOST of the items! it is not the 10 commandments of attending Colleen & Kevin's wedding!
'Thou shalt buy me a kitchaid stand mixer!' 'Thou shalt supply me with 600 count sateen sheets!'
This is a list of all the things we (ahem, aka I) would LOVE to have in our home. so - now you have an idea of what we like, the things we'd love to have. I'm dying to have the oxo cookie scooper as MUCH as I'd love a set of calphalon one pans.....HOWEVER I'm not EXPECTING them! If I didn't make a list you'd complain, now I have and you're complaining.....a big fat 80's style 'WHAAAATEVERRRR' to that! lolol. do NOT feel guilty - even about the Dyson. you never know, a group of friends might go searching for a bigger ticket item to pitch in and get for you.
ugggggg - this topic is so irritating :) can you tell

Re: Snide remarks about your registry?
My sister said that my china was pricey and I had 'expensive taste.' This coming from a girl who bought an entertainment center on a whim (and on her boyfriends credit card)
