So, to be honest, I prefer BuyBuyBaby, but there isn't one nearly my family/friends, so we're registered at BBB & BabiesRUs. I shop at BBB, but the family shops at BabiesRUs for the upcoming shower.
I just got an email from BabiesRUs, that Endless Earnings on my registry purchases, even ones I don't make myself, earn me 5-10% back in an e-gift card, and everything purchased off your registry within 30 days of your babies expected arrival date counts towards the rewards.
Your BabiesRUs Registry has to be connected to their RewardsRUs program (their free rewards card). But I thought this was awesome, especially for someone who planned on buying nursery furniture, gliders, and other big items there.
I'll also make sure to add all those last minute essentials I plan on stocking up before the baby arrives, so I can shop off my registry.
Hope this helps someone else!
Re: BabiesRUs - Endless Earnings - 10% back - Did you know?
I was told when we registered that a month after my due date we would get an email with whatever amount we earned with stuff bought off the registry. I did the math so far and we're up to $55 so that's exciting. It'll help.
I think it's more of a computer glitch/technology issue that can happen to any registry no matter where you go. Still frustrating. I want my credit for it!! If I have to I'll take the 2 items back that I bought and rebuy them. It does say on the receipt the registry # they were on.
