What's the Merchandise Total on Your Registry?

Just curious what's the total worth of the merchandise on your registry (ies) and what do you and DH expect to spend yourself on the remaining items?

I'll start, I have about $1700 so far on my two registries and expect to spend about another $2000 on the baby furniture and remaining items not on the registry, ie. breast pump (it somehow seems odd putting that on the registry).

its funny you did this thread...
i feel alil funny about having another shower even though my kids will be 10 years apart!! I just dont like the whole being the center of attention thing...so my mother made me register anyway cause she said people will WANNA buy me stuff anyhow..so i did, and they may plan a lil sprinkle or something, but im planning on really buying everything myself...

my registry alone costs about 1500-2000 but that doesnt include the furniture which is another 3k, the bedding which i am purchasing piece by piece...ANY of the room accessesories, my breast pump, or any clothing...i do have to go back, and add some stuff...but nothing major...

Re: What's the Merchandise Total on Your Registry?

my amazon registry (including mattress, pump, diaper bag, linens, swing, bouncer) was $1500.

the BRU had less stuff (becuase I HATE that store, but just wanted a brick and mortar store option) was roughly $1000. It had the pack n play, a car seat base, a carseat, a lot of little stuff (bottles, pacifiers, bath tub, receiving blankets...)

But THEN, Mom bought us the crib, and we made several MAJOR purchases on our own (bumbleride indie, infant carseat, changing table, a lot of clothing). that stuff easily totaled another $1200......
