So here's the thing about registries...everyone registers for boring or expensive stuff. I'm sorry, but I don't want to give someone 2 potholders and a dishtowel cause that's the only thing I can afford off their registry.

Having said that, it's a pain in the rear to have to return all the crap you don't want or have duplicates of. And stores are way more restrictive with their returns than when we got married.

So all you registering people: put fun stuff on your registry too. I love it when people put board games or things like that on their registry. Also, please be respectful of other people's budgets. I know you want the nicest stuff you can get, but not everyone can afford $100 wedding gifts. So make sure you have a wide range of prices on there. And DON'T register for 5 different shower curtains, even if you like them all (unless you have many showers to curtain)!! Pick one and stick with it.

So to sum it up: sane people want to get you what you want. But they want it to be fun and in their price range.
