registry advice

irish4jan1

Hello ladies,

 I have decided to register at Diapers.com and Amazon. If any of you are registering at Amazon.com and another site, which items have you found are better to register for on Amazon? Is Amazon known to be better for certain baby products than other websites? Perhaps I don't need to register in two places. Thoughts?

I think you should register in two places but I wouldn't do two online stores.  I think you need an actual store as well...Target, Babies R Us, Buy Buy Baby, etc.

Never really thought about that. Good point.

We only registered in one place for our wedding, and it worked out fine; managing two was too much of a headache for me, tbh.

We're definitely registering on Amazon for the LO, though; with the "universal wishlist" thing, I'm adding stuff from other sites, too, haha, but Amazon seems to have a pretty good selection of the same stuff that's on other websites, too.

Just keep in mind -- only things actually sold by Amazon are eligible for the 10%-off completion bonus!

I completely agree. I went to a Bridal Shower and 2 were online stores and one was Target, the Target registry had hardly anything on it... the couple rec'd a lot of things NOT on their registry because 

1) a lot of older folks aren't tech savy

2) a lot of people are last minute with shower gifts...

3) shipping costs

I agree (even though this is my first and can't really give advice ).  My family is a little on the old fashion side of things and not all of them will order things online.  But, with that said, I never registered at Amazon but I found their prices on a car seat I want cheaper there than at Target and they always have free shipping on most items that total over $25.  Which is a bonus!

I'm registering at Buy Buy Baby and Amazon. Dividing things between the 2 is hard, but I'm thinking it will mainly be the OOTers (DH's family) who uses Amazon. So I'm doing 25% there and the rest at BBB.
