tassimo pods... tacky?

Is it tacky to register for Tassimo coffee pods? I love my Tassimo machine, but it is working fine and i am iffy on the quality of the newer models, so i didn't register for a new machine but i did register for a Tassimo Carousel to hold my pods since i have been wanting one for years and it is a good price at $30... would it be tacky to register for my favorite pods of coffee and other beverages? i don't need people to buy my coffee, but thought maybe someone would want to give pods with the Carousel as a kind of basket gift... don't want to seem greedy by registering for a "food" item lol... any thoughts? I have had my machine for about 5 years now so i know the flavors i like. Pods are cheap, like $6 for Maxwell House, Starbucks a little pricier at $12. Hot Chocolate $7 for my favorite one.

Like i gave a popcorn popper as a gift recently, and threw in some popcorn and salt, so to me it makes sense to give pods with a Tassimo machine or Carousel...

Thoughts?

I agree w/ PP, if someone decides to do a basket gift they will just pick some pods out.  Maybe you'll wind up trying something new, and if not you can most likely exchange them.  FWIW, I exchanged pods at BB&B without a receipt, so maybe you can try that even if they don't get them there.

I registered for the pods, but we also registered for the machine.  If someone buys us both the machine and two things of pods, we can send in a rebate and also get extra pods.  Someone has already bought the machine, so we're going to buy the pods ourselves just to get some free ones.

I don't see anything wrong with it.

I don't think there's anything wrong with it.  A lot of times for showers people like to throw a little something else in so if you have the carosel and maybe some mugs then people can choose.  Do what you want!
