Bridal Shower Registry question - updated

My friend is registered at Store#1. Store#1 is very far from me. Store #2 is very close to me and also cheaper (cheaper to begin with plus accepts 20% off coupons). They same collection from Store #1 is at Store #2.
If I buy the items from Store #2 and call Store #1 to ask them to remove from her registry, will they do it?

ETA: I just calculated the difference in cost. I can buy they whole set for:
Store 1: $332
Store 2: $206

So it is a prett big difference. what should I do?

I would call the store and ask - they may want to see proof the items were purchased and that it's not someone messing up a registry.

I don't know how you feel about asking the FH to mark the item off on the list at the first store. Or maybe the bride's mother could help?

I know that if one my friends had the opportunity to save that kind of money, I'd love for them to do so.

I do that all the time--just tell store #1 you purchased the item and forgot to say take it off the registry. Chat Icon This happens to me all the time because Fortunoff's is so far away and I never want to make the trip to go there.

PEOPLE DO THIS

2 weeks after my shower, close to 3K worth of my registry at Fortunoff had been completely eradicated. Because I already had my shower and because I do not have rich relatives, I was rather suspect. It seems to be that someone (who must hate us immenselyChat Icon ) called Fortunoff and said "I bought this stuff someplace else for them, please take it off their registry" under the guise of a corporate/group gift. The person who did this, did not leave a contact name, just he name of a corporation. We never got the stuff. Needless to say, Fortunoff reinstated all of the "purchased" things.

It was a little scary that someone would try to be so hurtful to us. Just thought I'd share.

Re: Bridal Shower Registry question - updated

julz are you talking about bed bath and beyond and fortunoff?

if so, fortunoff accepts bbb coupons as long as the item is in both stores
