I did update pretty often though because I'd go online and see different things that I wanted, research and find better products, etc. looch on "How often do you update your registry?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-often-do-you-update-your-registry#post-326652 Fri, 05 Oct 2012 07:27:46 +0000 looch 326652@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I used a registry to keep track of things we needed, so I updated it whenever we bought something from it. Sometimes that meant items were deleted, but other times, it meant I added more of a good thing.

I actually made two registries, one for the public and one private one just for me on Amazon. The reason I have two is kind of silly, maybe I'm over thinking it, but here's what I'm thinking. If people have a huge list of things to choose from, they will be less likely to buy the things we need the most. They will gravitate towards clothes, toys, and cute things instead of gear, cloth diapers, toiletries, and other things that are more necessary. So I put only the stuff we actually NEED on there for now, and if a lot gets purchased, I'll move more luxury items over from the private registry to the public one so they still have plenty to choose from. birdofafeather on "How often do you update your registry?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-often-do-you-update-your-registry#post-326466 Fri, 05 Oct 2012 01:31:07 +0000 birdofafeather 326466@https://boards.hellobee.com/ @MaisyMay: that's how we looked at it too! So whatever is left, I need to buy at some point: shampoo, diaper cream, milk storage bags, etc pinkcupcake on "How often do you update your registry?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-often-do-you-update-your-registry#post-326392 Thu, 04 Oct 2012 23:22:27 +0000 pinkcupcake 326392@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I only updated our registry when I wanted to add or change an item. I didn't put everything on our registry, but that's a good idea.

We don't expect people to really buy much off of it, but it's a convenient resource for us too this way...the completion discounts won't hurt either!

We have basically bought very little (besides furniture and whatever we've found at consignment sales) and are waiting until after the showers to pick up anything we still need.

I don't have EVERYTHING on the registry though. chopsuey on "How often do you update your registry?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-often-do-you-update-your-registry#post-325056 Thu, 04 Oct 2012 17:34:56 +0000 chopsuey 325056@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I kept my registry simple and didn't update it!

This means that I update our registry 1 or 2 times a month depending on what we've bought. How often do you update your registry?
