BRU had a bad news day

FI just found this online:

and is like "we should cancel our registry and go somewhere else".  We JUST opened it today.  I think not.

What sucks is there isn't a lot of alternative options with as good of selections.

Exactly!  We're planning to register at Target too, but they don't have nearly the selection.

I'll keep my registry.  I do put a side note on any registry that if someone finds the same item somewhere else, I don't mind.  Just let someone know so we can take it off the registry.  As for things we can only find at BRU, maybe we will see a price decrease or something between now and then.

We have both a BRU and Buy Buy Baby about a mile from each other.  I was going to purchase this

I am pretty good about price comparing and really haven't noticed that much of a difference in price between BRU, BabyAge and Buy Buy Baby except for a few select items.

My mom and MIL have been telling family to show around for the stuff on my registry if people want too since you can find it cheaper.  All they have to do is call BRU and tell them to remove it from the registry.

I figured this out when I started researching stuff I wanted and found the FP swing $50 cheaper at walmart then at BRU.
