Where did everyone register?

And did anyone register at more than one store and if so then where?

I took my daughter to register today at BRU and she she wants to go anothere week to BBB. Is there any benefits to that or where else would you recommend?

Re: Where did everyone register?

here are my experiences and opinions......

I'm registered at BRU (a limited registry for the people who don't like to shop online) and amazon (the major registry).

Frankly, I actually dislike BRU. While it's convenient for brick and mortar shoppers, I find many of their prices too high, they frequently have issues updating the registry purchases, and they change their stock constantly, so you frequently find items on your registry 'no longer available'. Also, I tried once to purchase something online, and their shopping cart kept crashing... eventually I gave up and had to call customer service and place the order over the phone... not terribly convenient or professional IMO.

None the less, it's convenient for people who like to walk into stores to shop, so I have a small registry there.

I chose amazon becuase you cannot beat the selection, the prices are very competitive (some items upto 30% less than BRU), frequently shipping is free, the registry is updated efficiently, and I've never had a problem with an amazon order... everything has always been efficiently processed.

BBB may not be the best choice if you have many out of town shower guests... becuase there aren't many shops around... they may be forced to shop online.

I'm registered at BRU an Target. I only registered at Target because my MIL doesn't drive and there's one right by her house.

Re: Where did everyone register?

Thanks everyone! I sent her email with a link to amazon asking if maybe she wanted to do that instead of BBB.
