Where did you register and why?

Buy Buy Baby or Babies R Us?

Is there something that made you register at one place and not the other?
If it was that one store carried one of your major purchases and the other didn't, what item was it?

Just hoping to get some insight, i have to start moving on this.

thanks!

For me it was the fact that BRU had more locations in the tristate area. Both DH's family and mine are from out of state and could easily locate a BRU. There aren't any BBB where they live.

I plan on registering at Babies R Us. I actually really like Buy Buy Baby, but I think that babies R us is just more accessible for people?

I agree. I only registered at BRU b/c there were more locations.

If you have friends/family outside the area BRU is a much better choice.

Babies R Us.. I think the prices are reasonable, there may be more locations and I find the staff to be helpful at times. For some reason, I really don't like BBB. Im never comfortable in that store. I know that we are going there this weekend to purchase a monitor we saw (and I have a coupon) but thats about it.

ETA: When we couldn't decide on a high chair a staff member came over and spent about 10 mins. with dh and I and gave "samples" of all the high chairs and her recommendations.

BRU only, mostly because DH's family is out of state and there's no BBB near them. Also, the nearest BBB to us is not that close but BRU is 10 minutes away.
