So we live about and hour away from the closest mall and about an hour and a half away from a "good" mall. So we left earlier this morning and went to the "good" mall and reigstered at Crate & Barrel and Macy's. We have a few things that we still need to add but I'm happy that we can check that off. I really didn't want to go to register at christmas time. We choose pretty classic (read: non-seasonal) things like towels and I even talked FI into china. (I played the, "it's better to choose something we at least like than not pick anything and someone still wants to buy it but it's ugly," card)
Both were pretty good experiences although I haven't spent 4 hours in a mall in YEARS!
