    BRU, Amazon and Wal-Mart.

    Amazon for a few key things I couldn't find in stores.

    WM because we have families that live in smaller towns - can't shop online and there are no other stores.

    No Target because I didn't want to fight the return system.

    I had my shower a month ago and I registered at Target and BRU.  All of the big stuff (swing, bouncy seat, high chair) were at BRU and I did most of the little stuff at Target.  Most people went to Target and I had multiples (like 3 or 4) of many items on my registry.  Hardly anything was taken off the registry when it was purchased.  It actually became quite funny when I opened the third duckie faucet cover at the shower!

    I had no problems returning anything to either store.  My biggest complaint about BRU was that they give you sale prices (even if it isn't currently on sale) if you don't have a gift receipt.  They were willing to scan things that I wanted to return, but didn't know for sure where it came from.  As long as you have a registry, they will take back anything they sell regardless if it is on your registry.  I did combine my 10% off competion coupon with two different 20% off One Item coupons and saved a ton on my swing and Arm's reach co-sleeper.

    At Target, I just went online and added everything that was purchased to my registry log and then marked it as purchased.  I had zero problems returning it all for giftcards. They did require that the items show up on your purchase log to return w/o a receipt, but it only took a few minutes to do at home.  It takes a while for their registry to update, so do it at home the day before you plan to return items.

    I just kept it simple at registered at one place--Babies R Us.  There were a couple of things (our stroller and carseat) that BRU didn't carry that we wanted, but our parents bought those items from other online stores so it was no big deal.  I was going to do BRU and Target but I was finding there was too much overlap so we just decided to do one registry.
