I haven't actually started buying or putting together a registry yet as I am only 9 weeks, but I do a lot of browsing.
Last night I found that if you create your BRU registry by November 15, you will get a promotional gift card up to $200 after your due date. It sounds too good to pass up so DH and I decided that we will be starting an early registry in a couple of weeks to take advantage of this cool sounding offer.
Just wanted to share

Re: Just an FYI
I will definitely be registering early
Baby #1 due June 5th, 2014
I went and looked at this. I won't be having a shower this time as it's baby 2 for me, but I thought if I can get a discount like that I'll register anyway! However, read the fine print, it's 10% of whatever gets purchased off your registry, up to $200. So, for me, makes no sense and no one will be buying anything!
For the first time ever, you can get
up to $200 for purchases made from
your registry. Simply create your
Baby Registry between Sept. 16
and Nov. 15! Then you’ll get a
Promotional Gift Card e-mailed to
you approximately 10 weeks after
your baby's expected arrival date,
valued at 10% (up to $200) of the
items purchased from your registry.*

Just like anything else on this site folks have differing opinions. That said, I myself, had second showers because I had folks offer. I appreciate their generosity. No, the same guests were not present for the other showers.
