But an hour for target, that's a lot! Is there any closer store you can go to and pick up a backup? You could tell them you didn't know they were coming so you didn't have enough, but wanted them to get a treat too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-chase-people-up-for-rsvps#post-123816 Mon, 16 Apr 2012 05:16:48 +0000 Andrea 123816@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mediagirl: no, they are about $8 each and they have two kids --but the real issue is that i have to go to Target, which will take me over an hour roundtrip, just to get those extra goodie bags -- just in case. sigh! decisions, decisions! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-chase-people-up-for-rsvps#post-123813 Mon, 16 Apr 2012 05:13:00 +0000 mediagirl 123813@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Andrea: are the goodie bags expensive? Can you keep an extra on hand just in case and use it for your LO later if they don't show? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-chase-people-up-for-rsvps#post-123811 Mon, 16 Apr 2012 05:11:17 +0000 Andrea 123811@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mediagirl: yesssss! watch, i'll be thinking about it all week and then they won't even show up. but then i am also thinking about the kiddies showing up and not having goodie bags all b/c their mama did not respond. :-/ </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-chase-people-up-for-rsvps#post-123808 Mon, 16 Apr 2012 05:08:10 +0000 mediagirl 123808@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Andrea: ultimately, I'm a fan of @MamaMoose's plan so I say go for it. :-) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-chase-people-up-for-rsvps#post-123806 Mon, 16 Apr 2012 05:07:12 +0000 Andrea 123806@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@chopsuey119: @artbee: @mediagirl: @Arden: @MamaMoose: i feel like going with mama moose's plan. :-D </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-chase-people-up-for-rsvps#post-123799 Mon, 16 Apr 2012 04:44:38 +0000 mediagirl 123799@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Andrea: I know my shower hostess had to hunt down a lot of people.

I think. If not, go with MamaMoose's plan. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-chase-people-up-for-rsvps#post-123605 Sun, 15 Apr 2012 20:52:04 +0000 MamaMoose 123605@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Unless you are doing a plated meal that you have to know and exact head count for I would just leave it and assume they aren't coming. If they did show up and I was unprepared (short a goodie bag or something) I wouldn't feel bad at all telling them we did not expect them since they never replied. I can be a B like that. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-chase-people-up-for-rsvps#post-123589 Sun, 15 Apr 2012 20:36:07 +0000 Andrea 123589@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@artbee: i know! why can't people just respond??? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-chase-people-up-for-rsvps#post-123586 Sun, 15 Apr 2012 20:34:18 +0000 heffalump 123586@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ask.

They've had the invite for 3 weeks. Would you ask them or just leave it? </p>
