Most coveted gift? Most unusual gift?

MrsWilson2013 · May 2011

Out of all your registered gifts what is the one you covet the most? Or top few if you cant pick just one.

Also, what is the most unusal gift you registered for?

I just thought it would be interesting to share with everyone.

Most coveted: Goose down feather retails about $250 but if they are wise they will use a 20% off coupon lol...I've always had alternative down costing $15-$40 and have never slept better....

Unusual..hmmm can't think of anything yet lol

KatyRoseM · May 2011

Most coveted, either the kitchenaid or my pots and pans.

Most unusual, the meat freezer, which one of my mom's friends I have never met got us. Thats a hard thank you note as I don't know him. (Its the first I don't know you thank you note).

SteveandKris · May 2011

Coveted: Pots and Pans (received) Electric Blanket (still hoping)

Unusual: FI really wants this: http://www.bedbathandbeyond.com/regProduct.asp?WRN=-79434413&sku=16965472&

futuremrseagle · May 2011

coveted: dishes & flatware! and pots and pans. and kitchenaid.

unusual: a treadmill! sure, it's $700 and I doubt anyone will buy it, but with the completion discount we should be able to get a good deal!

Amivy06 · May 2011

Most coveted: For me it's a tie between the KitchenAid stand mixer and the Calphalon pots and pans. For FI, it was the ice cream maker attachment for the KitchenAid, which his mom just gave us last night.

Most unusual: I would have to say the old school popcorn maker. I loved the one my family had when I was a kid. The most unusual gift bought for us were a his and hers eye mask set. Neither of us will ever use them.

erinkay81 · May 2011

Coveted: Kitchenaid Mixer (was delivered on Monday!!!) and Wustaf Knives (so far only one was purchased from our block).

Unusual: leaf blower and storage shelving for the garage....but we do "need" these for our house so we felt it was appropriate. Anyone disagree? I feel like no one will buy either of them because they are not at all a fun gift to give IMO.

karmellah · May 2011

most wanted: our bedspread. its already been bought. i think my next is any of my pans. the set would be awesome.

unusual. my cow creamer. its shaped like a cow. i just had to

meima · May 2011

Coveted - Kitchenaid mixer (am I sensing a trend here?)

Most unusual - we registered for the grain mill attachment for the mixer, so we can grind our own flour.

futurepivko · May 2011

mine was our apple green kitchen aid stand mixer

or our calphalon 8 quart multi-pot. that thing is FANTASTIC.

our most unusual was a free-standing kitchen cabinet thing from target, and we actually got it

DanielleM01 · May 2011

most coveted - pots and pans, knives, dishes (we got all our place settings already!)

most unusual - paper shredder....and that's one of the things my fiance really hope someone buys

carolynnmarieg · May 2011

Coveted: Definitely on board the KitchenAid standing mixer train, which I just got this week (thanks, Mom!), next were pots and pans which I got a while ago (thanks Auntie!), and then it's the blender that we're waiting for!!

Unusual: I guess all the camping stuff - we're registered at REI for FI

kgorman307 · May 2011

Most Coveted: agreed on the kitchen aid mixer, and a new set of knives

Most Unusual: FI and I were poking around online at BBB adding things to our registry and he insisted we register for a toy for our pup, since his "parents" are getting married.
My friend registered for a bug vacuum (click) and NERF guns.

MrsChasey · May 2011

We just registered over the weekend

FI has a beautiful house and it is well stocked. We didn't need to register for things like dishes, silverware, etc. Mostly, we registered for things that needed upgrading/replacing.

Most coveted: New bedding set, Dyson (a second one for upstairs), and a crystal vase

Most unusual: The only thing I can come up with is a storage ottoman and it has trays that sit on top of it so you can use it as a coffee table.

jemmini6 · May 2011

Most coveted: I'm not really sure because we'll probably buy anything we didn't receive anyways, so if we get it as a gift, great...if we don't, we'll still get it.

Most unusual: I'd say maybe the underwater housing for our digital camera. Kinda hoping we get that one before the wedding though so we can take it on our HM.

ajroark · May 2011

Most coveted = The Dyson Ball Vacuum (we already have a KitchenAid mixer or else I would've put that).

Most unusual = My FI really wanted me to add one of those old-fashioned popcorn carts to our registry so I did...

shopgrl3177 · May 2011

Most coveted: Kitchen Aid Mixer (mom's best friend already purchased it for us)

Most unusual: Mandolin - the kitchen tool, not the instrument. Maybe this isn't as unusual as I think but I'd never heard of it until FI wanted to register for one.

nontradduo · May 2011

Our Most Coveted: Dyson! I so, so want that Dyson and so does my FI.
The Kitchen Aid stand mixer is up there on that list as I'd like to upgrade from my cheap knock-off one...but it'll last until I can save up for the Kitchen Aid version myself if we don't get it or the attachments. I would also like to have the beautiful china set I registered for (the one I inherited from my grandmother is gorgeous, but it doesn't feed more than 4 people, but it will go beautifully with the china I registered for).

Our Most Unusual: The pull out racks for organizing our kitchen cabinets immaculately.

If I get all of the above- I reach registry Nirvana!

lalaith50 · May 2011

coveted: 3 minute wine chiller!

Mrshannahboyden · May 2011

I'm dying to get my hands on the Keurig coffee maker. I'm almost drooling since I know how awesome and simple it is to use!

artbyallie · May 2011

coveted: my china, actually. I love the pattern so much. (Mikasa French Countryside, if you're curious. I like the square plates)

unusual: some of the things on our myregistry.com one would qualify. I added the ThinkGeek Princess Bride board game, a 'melting' clock (think Dali), and Green Dragon glass pint glasses (also ThinkGeek).

bridetobemo · May 2011

most coveted: kitchen aid, camera or video camera

most unusual: dart board or picnic basket

[Deleted User] · May 2011

Most coveted: Hotel bedding/sheets/down comforter

Most unusual: Inflatable Stand up Paddle Board from REI (way expensive...but hey, may our friends will go in on it!)

lsvensson · May 2011

Most coveted: Samsonite Spinner Luggage (we registered for 3 pieces) in Silver. Crossing my fingers we get that so we don't have to buy it ourselves before our HM.

Most unusual: Nothing too crazy...registered for a Cooking Light Slow Cooker Cookbook off of Amazon. Hoping someone will couple that with the slow cooker we registered for to make a nice little giftie!

Habs2Hart · May 2011

Most coveted: My apple green KA mixer (not received) our dishes (received) our pots and pans (received) and our dyson (not received)

Oddest? Ummm... Fl was in charge of registering for knives. He picked a set of "as seen on tv" knives for $20.

Oh, and I received a shell shaped glass salad bowl and platter at my shower... hmmm. NMS at all, but it's the thought that counts right?

shortee426 · May 2011

Most coveted: Our every day dishes, or our china

Most unusual: Our FSU picnic basket, my ladybug kitchen timer (yes, that one is MINE, not OURS. haha), or our monkey chip clips.

gossipgirl1983 · May 2011

Most coveted: All Clad Copper Core cookware - sooo expensive, but hoping a ton of people might decide to join together to get it! I already have a stand mixer, and I have to say, word of advice, I once had a KitchenAid stand mixer and it was just awful (I cook and bake a lot). I switched to a professional grade stand mixer from a different brand a few years ago and I haven't looked back!

Most unusual: A featherbed! It's like adding a pillowtop mattress and a lot of Omni hotels use it!

ShakeUpTampa · May 2011

OK Im back after another trip to BBB, and I now covet 2 items. The Sheex bedsheets $199 but omg I was about to open a set in the store and start rolling around in them. I'm used to 1200 tc Egyptian but this is even BETTER! So I put two colors on the registry..also the Sharper Image chair massage...My back was KILLING ME and I sat in it for like 10 minutes while my friend looked at other stuff, I feel AMAZING NOW.

Still not sure on most unusual gift, everything is still so mainstream :-p

J&K10910 · May 2011

We didn't register for it (obviously) but our favorite gift by far was a sweet scrapbook one of my BMs made us.

hanson617 · May 2011

Most coveted: New towels! (I've never had new or matching towels before) or our GPS... I get lost a lot.

Most unusual: Countertop compost keeper... We're gardeners!
