Has anyone had any experience registering on Amazon.com? Good, bad, ugly? My fiance and I do a lot of shopping there, but I don't know about the on-line registry. We're one of those couples that's already established - we have 2 of all basics. We would like a few novelty gifts, but no one store seems appropriate. (i.e. digital camera, Kitchen-Aid mixer, a few random cookware items, flat screen tv, one of those cool Dyson fans without blades, wireless router, laser printer, and maybe a couple coffee table books.)
The above items are more "wish list" items that I feel embarrassed to formally register for. Since we live in the south - traditional gifts are fine china, bakeware, crockpots, linens, and all the stuff we bought ourselves during our 20's.
What do we really want and need? ...a new mattress, bedroom furniture, kitchen table & chairs, kitchen pantry cabinet, home improvement fund, a strong-armed crew w/ a truck who will help us move the things we already have. Several friends tell me to register somewhere or we'll end up with a lot of things we don't want with no easy way to exchange them. It feels weird to make a list of the items we want.
