I asked her and she said she would love it. </p> <p>@Foodnerd81: Oh, good point. I will make sure that I tell her that I don't want it back. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/looking-at-friends-registry-see-a-few-items-that-you-own-that-i-could-give#post-2596618 Mon, 01 Aug 2016 16:15:38 +0000 Mrs. Lemon-Lime 2596618@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would have been happy to receive the exact same item- brand &amp; color- used from my registry. Definitely ask her if she wants them. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/looking-at-friends-registry-see-a-few-items-that-you-own-that-i-could-give#post-2596601 Mon, 01 Aug 2016 15:47:04 +0000 Foodnerd81 2596601@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would be happy to receive hand me downs (and got a bunch from my sister and SIL). I would just be clear about if you want them back or not- I know sometimes people would rather new so they can keep t for multiple kids and not worry if it gets ruined, if you would want it back after. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/looking-at-friends-registry-see-a-few-items-that-you-own-that-i-could-give#post-2596588 Mon, 01 Aug 2016 15:29:18 +0000 DesertDreams88 2596588@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>As a hand-me-down giver I would ask, and as a reciever, I would love that!! Car seat bases and strollers get expensive! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/looking-at-friends-registry-see-a-few-items-that-you-own-that-i-could-give#post-2596574 Mon, 01 Aug 2016 15:00:40 +0000 caterw 2596574@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would love if someone offered me a hand-me-down of an item from my registry (either the exact thing I wanted or something similar). I would just ask if she wants it and make it clear it's a good condition item that you just aren't using anymore- she can accept or decline whatever she wants. You're sweet for wanting to pass stuff along! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/looking-at-friends-registry-see-a-few-items-that-you-own-that-i-could-give#post-2596571 Mon, 01 Aug 2016 14:57:20 +0000 snowjewelz 2596571@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would totally ask! That way she can knock out some of the items and hopefully get everything else she's asking for! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/looking-at-friends-registry-see-a-few-items-that-you-own-that-i-could-give#post-2596566 Mon, 01 Aug 2016 14:52:18 +0000 IRunForFun 2596566@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'd ask her first if she wants hand-me-downs. Otherwise she may think it's a little odd getting a wrapped used gift at her shower. And I'd probably still bring her a gift I bought off the registry. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/looking-at-friends-registry-see-a-few-items-that-you-own-that-i-could-give#post-2596562 Mon, 01 Aug 2016 14:49:08 +0000 youboots 2596562@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Sure! Just tell her you have the items she has on her registry and they are all hers if she wants hand me down. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/looking-at-friends-registry-see-a-few-items-that-you-own-that-i-could-give#post-2596561 Mon, 01 Aug 2016 14:47:36 +0000 BSB 2596561@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>There's a car seat stroller and a car seat base that I could give her. (Car seat base is not expired and won't be for a while.) I think I'm going to switch to convertible car seats soon. </p> <p>Do I ask her if she wants my used items first? Is it etiquette to ask first?</p> <p>I'm going to buy her something, too. </p>
