what one registry item would you tell the rest of us to add?

what one registry item would you tell the rest of us to add? Where can you find it? How much is it? Why do you recommend it?
You should add: Krups Toaster Oven You can find it: BBB It costs: $199 (but you can take 20% off) I recommend it because: It's big, works really well, and you can BAKE things in it without needing to wait for it to preheat! I use this instead of my oven for anything small enough to fit in it -- it's the best thing ever. It also comes with these great tongs that are perfect for pulling out the rack because they have a small hook at the end.
Edit: I still need to add to our registry... so I'm going to take advantage of this thread

You should add: Cuisinart Griddler You can find it: BBB It costs: $129.99 I recommend it because: its greaaaaat! Ive used it almost everyday since my shower to make random stuff, pancakes, quesadillas, grill cheese, bacon, etc. It was our #1 item on our registry and when we got it we were ecstatic!
We have this on our registry, too. I hope I get it, it's my #1 fav!!!
we originally registered at Fortunoff and they had a guy out making grilled cheese on the Griddler.... and giving out free samples. that's when we put it on our registry what can i say, they make a great grilled cheese sandwich?
I love the fact that you can make almost anything on it. Breakfast, lunch, dinner, snacks.... That and my 16 Quart sauce pot make me drool!
which one did you get? we made a giant thing of vegetable soup last week and squeezed it into the crock pot because our biggest pot wasn't nearly big enough. i registered for a 12 Q one from BBB's website but maybe we should go with 16?
Also, can someone please tell me what pots/pans are best? we have a middle of the road cuisinart set (from BBB) but I want 1-2 metal skillets (not non-stick) for sauteeing etc. no idea what brand to get.
Calphalon pots are very good but kind of expensive.

Re: what one registry item would you tell the rest of us to add?
I asked this question of my SIL this past weekend and her responses (and a couple of my own additions):
- LOTS of serving platters (preferably white ones so they go with any plates you're serving) - Serving utensils for all thes platters!! BBB has nice ones by Oneida, so register for more than 1 serving spoon and fork. - A tea kettle - A water pitcher for the table (ok, she said to server lemonade in the summer, but I'm thinking a bit more about functionality)

You should add: Kitchen Aid Artisan Mixer You can find it at: Macy's It's costs: $399.99 (but is on sale for $299.99) I recommend it because: it is the hottest mixer in all the land!!!!!
Here's a tip: BBB also carries this and their everyday price is $299.99, plus you can use a 20% off coupon to bring the price to $239.99

Re: what one registry item would you tell the rest of us to add?
I registered for a roomba which i'm really excited about. Because of all the suggestions I just added that gridler...sounds fun! I did an Aero bed...can't hurt to have it for extra guests. I did a humidifyer since my house is sooo dry! I have a wine fridgte on there...I would really like that.
I think adding fun stuff is good also. I added wireless speakers, a vera bradley carry on bag, a valet stand for FH for his suits.
Good thread!

I didn't like how I was treated at BBB. I switched my entire registry to Macy's. I think the one for $299.99 everyday is a different mixer.

You should add: Calphalon Contemporary Non Stick8 Piece Set You can find it at: BBB It's costs: $299.99 (plus you can get 20% off) I recommend it because: The pots are AWESOME to cook with, the cleanup could NOT be easier, and everything cooks well. Also, it's cheaper to get the 8 piece set and an extra pot than it is to get the 10 piece set.
You should add: Oster Digital Convection Toaster Oven You can find it at: BBB It's costs: $99.99 (plus you can get 20% off) I recommend it because: It's digital and works great. We use this so often!
You should add: Ultra Slim hangers You can find it at: BBB It's costs: $39.99 for 50 (plus you can get 20% off) I recommend it because: These hangers are the best - they're super slim, clothes doesn't slide off them, and they're cheaper than the Huggable Hangers.

If it was up to FH he would probably say the Griddler, but as a second choice it would be...
You should add: Cuisinart Mini Deep Fryer You can find it at: BBB It's costs: $49.99 (plus you can get 20% off) I recommend it because: Makes really good hot wings (he especially likes the Budweiser wing sauce) and mozz sticks, onion rings, mini rice balls, etc. its easy to use and keeps portions small. FH is obsessed with it, and his brother would come over all the time to use it until he got his own for xmas.
and a third choice would be:
You should add: Cuisinart® Supreme Super 600™ Stainless Steel Blender You can find it at: BBB It's costs: $99.99 (plus you can get 20% off) I recommend it because: FH loves to make smoothies in this, and it also makes good margaritas. it still scares the cats under the bed every time we use it though.

I would highly recomend one good copper pot, preferably 2 qt size. Copper lasts forever and warms evenly through the pot. It's perfect for melting chocolate, warming milk and heavy creams and making perfect sauces that never scald!

since i discovered this, around 12 years of age i guess, i've ALWYAS said - 'I can't wait to get married for 2 reasons....1. to find my knight in shining armor and 2. to get a kitchenaid stand mixer!!!' i posted up on here that when i opened my registry i came back and tested it by adding the mixer. it was one of those 'holy snickerdoodles i'm getting married' moments. yes girls, i teared up when i put registered!!! not to mention i've bought at least 8 of them in my life for other brides. purely under the 'living vicariously through others ' category! :) :)

haha i actually added the aero bed.. the way i see it, we'll be in a one bedroom apt. and if we have to give up our room to guests, i didn't want to end up on the floor.. it's about 399 but it's always on sale at macy's for like 249
I have the Queen Aero bed on mine as well. DId you register for the one that is the height of a normal bed? That's the one I put down.
we have this and LOVE it. got it when we moved while waiting for our real bed to be delivered - and i can't tell you how handy its been already (we've used it a bunch in less than a years time)! and yes - its the same height as a bed which is GREAT if you have someone older staying over. no need to climb down and up onto the mattress.
