    We did it Saturday! It was fun but exhausting, we did Target, Kohl's and Menards. Yes menards! FI does a lot of wood working and my family love Menards.

    It's like shopping for stuff you hope! haha. It was a lot of fun though. I had a list but didn't use it much untill we were done to make sure we got everything.

    Have fun!

    My philosophy when I registered was to register for whatever I saw that I wanted and then I went back online and checked it later.  I ended up deleting some things that I had double registered for at two different places or seeing some things that I missed that I had to go back and register for.

    Hope you are having fun!  I am jealous, FI and I just haven't had time to do it.

    We are not doing the usual registry because it's not our first wedding and our problem right now s trying to merge two houses in one, so we have everything doubled.
    Instead, we did a honeymoon registry, but for the very traditional guests, we pick a couple items in JC Penney.

    We weren't going to register as this is a second marriage for both of us.  But, we've been getting a lot of, "Where are you registered?" so we decided we'll register somewhere. 

    We also had the double of everything issue.  We truly don't need anything.  I didn't know that you can register at Menards though.  That is awesome.  We will either be purchasing an existing home which we will put an addition onto plus a lot of remodeling, or building a new house, so we will be regulars at Menards.  lol!

    Update: BBB was a blast. FI had alot of fun with it and that made it even more fun! I am going to stalk the website online later and add some things we have missed. We are also going to register at Target over the next couple weeks.
