hello ladies,
I just had my baby shower this past saturday. I got a gift from a friend that I had registered for, those baby brezza food makers, i also got a similar product from another friend, the munchin food processor. I rather keep the baby brezza and exchange the food processor since i registered for the brezza. However, there was no gift receipt for the food processor nor can I find it anywhere in any of the baby stores, ie buybuybaby, babies r us, walmart or target. Do you guys think its rude of me to ask the person that got it for me where she got the gift from so i can go exchange it? I mean, she spent her hard earned money on it and i don't want it to just sit there and collect dust. i rather exchange it for something i can use for the baby.
Re: asking to exchange a gift
it could be from Amazon, but i'm clueless when it comes to that, can i exchange it from there?
i don't want to ask for a gift receipt, i just wanted to ask her where she got it from so i can exchange it. i looked on walmart's website and even though they have a lot of muchkin stuff, they don't have that specific food processor.;
I'm pretty sure you can't exchange at amazon.com, unless you have a receipt. I wouldn't ask her where she got it, either. You might just have to regift it or donate it, at some point.
good one!! i'll download one now.
i'm glad i don't have to ask her, it would have made for a very awkward conversation.

"Oh, this is a perfectly acceptable food processor that I do not need. Maybe I can give it to my friend Susie who is having a baby soon after me. Or I could sell it and use that money (being as it's never been used and in the box) or I could donate it to the womens shelter in town and help people who need it."
He's the single greatest thing I've done in my life and reminds me daily of how fun (and funny) life can be. He's turned out pretty swell for having such a heartless and evil mother.
Sell it on craigslist and call it a day.
If she wanted you to have the option of returning it, she would have given you a gift receipt
I read this and guessed maybe it was already being re-gifted when you got it. I always include a gift receipt, and I try to buy off the registry. She did neither...so I wouldn't be surprised if that's why you didn't get the one you registered for and you got it without a receipt.
I wouldn't re-gift it unless it's what another friend actually registered for, or you're just passing on the problem. However, if it's a close friend, it's okay to ask, Hey, I got two of these, do you want one? Then it's her call and maybe she will want one.
Otherwise, donate/sell.
