I'm using Amazon as our main registry and added the same stuff (that was available in store) at BRU-- mostly because I know people usually end up getting things last minute at brick-and-mortar stores for baby showers.</p> <p>I also plan on being a registry stalker and marking things off as "Already purchased" if it gets bought on the other registry. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/multiple-registries#post-109153 Mon, 02 Apr 2012 11:12:15 +0000 kml636 109153@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>ooh, I would love Pottery Barn Kids. Right now i'm doing Amazon where you can add things from all different websites to one registry. I'm loving Serena &amp; Lily &amp; Layla Grayce too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/multiple-registries#post-109151 Mon, 02 Apr 2012 11:11:38 +0000 mrstilly 109151@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I registered at BRU and Target. For some items, like the pack n play, Target was about 15% cheaper for the same item in a different pattern/color. Most of the stuff I registered for at BRU though, since that seemed to be the most popular place for family to shop at. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/multiple-registries#post-109108 Mon, 02 Apr 2012 10:46:57 +0000 autumnlove 109108@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I registered at BRU and Amazon. Most of our big ticket items were purchased from BRU! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/multiple-registries#post-109096 Mon, 02 Apr 2012 10:42:10 +0000 Mrs. Pen 109096@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Target and BRU had great return policies so if you get a duplicate it's not bad at all. Actually I liked getting duplicates because I could then put the store credit towards leftover items I REALLY needed. We only paid about $50 out of pocket for our carseat because of all the store credit we accumulated from returns. </p> <p>I did register for a few of the same things at amazon and BRU, but I kept an eye on both registries so if one got bought, I'd delete the other. People were more likely to buy off BRU than amazon. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/multiple-registries#post-109071 Mon, 02 Apr 2012 10:26:01 +0000 regberadaisy 109071@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Whoever had it cheaper! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/multiple-registries#post-109022 Mon, 02 Apr 2012 10:01:05 +0000 Colekbl 109022@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was so discouraged with the local BRU selection that I decided to register totally online. I have a BRU registry also with some overlap but plan to just keep an eye on it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/multiple-registries#post-109017 Mon, 02 Apr 2012 09:57:44 +0000 Goldilocks1107 109017@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have Target and BRU and tried to divvy up the items based on what I liked better at each place. But I'm also keeping an eye on both registries so if one starts to be used more than the other, I'll move items over. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/multiple-registries#post-108981 Mon, 02 Apr 2012 09:43:12 +0000 Weagle 108981@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I ended up registering for the same things at both. It made it easy. I knew that people here would buy from one place while people in our hometowns would buy from the other. I figured that even if we did get duplicates, we could just exchange them when we make our final pre-baby shopping trip. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/multiple-registries#post-108973 Mon, 02 Apr 2012 09:41:28 +0000 winniebee 108973@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I registered at PBK, BRU and amazon. I think so long as you don't register for the same items at different places, you aren't at any greater risk for getting duplicates as you would otherwise be. My shower guests purchased pretty widely from all 3 registries and I didn't end up with duplicates of anything (except clothing, which I didn't register for anyways). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/multiple-registries#post-108956 Mon, 02 Apr 2012 09:37:22 +0000 sorrycharlie 108956@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>i think we're twins. i was literally just talking to my mom about this, just now. i'm putting the "major" things at babies r us because i thought people would check there first. and 'others' at target - also divvying up based on any huge price differences. just because i know of price matching policies doesn't mean others will.</p> <p>and i plan to keep an eye out - if something gets bought, ill delete off the other (cups, bottles, etc). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/multiple-registries#post-108943 Mon, 02 Apr 2012 09:32:27 +0000 chopsuey 108943@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I registered at BRU and Buy buy baby. I just made sure I didn't register for same items. I wish I had registered at Amazon! So convenient.. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/multiple-registries#post-108939 Mon, 02 Apr 2012 09:31:15 +0000 heffalump 108939@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I registered at BRU and Target. I just registered for things I liked at both, and then went through it later online to delete things that overlapped. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/multiple-registries#post-108924 Mon, 02 Apr 2012 09:26:23 +0000 mrsjyw 108924@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>If you had more than one registry, how did you divide up your lists so that you didn't end up with duplicates of an item?</p> <p>Buy Buy Baby &amp; Pottery Barn Kids is my ideal two, but up north (where DH's extended family is) they only have a BRU; so I'm trying to prep for the future. I'm not toow worried about PBK, but BBB and BRU will have lots of overlaps! </p>
