Registry Stalking

[Deleted User] · December 2011

I recently finished adding a couple items to our BB&B registry, I was looking it over a noticed that someone purchased all 8 of our dinner plates... now I'm soooooo tempted to check in on it more often. Anyone else fighting the urge to stalk theirs?

I checked our 3 registries 2 weeks ago and only 1 item was purchased and I noticed it in a bag in my parents' bedroom last time I was home... haha!! This kind of helped me from looking because I feel like most of my guests are probably waiting until after the holidays. We definitely wouldn't mind more cash either!!

I definitely am having trouble NOT stalking our registries. I don't know why I went on a few weeks ago, but I noticed that several of our little kitchen items (hand towels, pot holders) had been purchased. I was back on there last week and someone has purchased two of our suitcases!! Now I have trouble not looking at it all the time. Especially with my showers both coming up in a month!

I'm having a hard time not checking them. Like 10 things are gone off of our Macy's registry and it just tempts me. I try not to but it's soooooo hard!

Oh my gosh, yes. I signed on the other day to add a couple of things and noticed 1 item had been purchased. Horray! I was so excited! Then I looked and it was a cheese grater. So random. I mean, I know we registered for it but it's a little weird that it was the first thing purchased and apparently on it's own.

Anyway, after that I can't help myself. Only 3 or 4 things have been purchased but my shower invites just went out so I'm thinking it will jump up pretty quickly after CHristmas.

I just got done registry stalking! After that first package came in the mail with all of my towels, I couldn't resist any longer! Then when kitchen utensils came in the mail, all hope was lost.

Even FI keeps checking and giving me updates. We might have a problem.

No purchases off my registry

So it just depresses me now to check...always says 0 items bought...

However, on my wedding website I did mention we would like honeymoon help, so maybe everyone is just planning on giving me cash at the wedding...which would be super duper fabulous! We already have everything we need for the house after being together for 11 years. I just want a new mattress and I didn't feel it was appropriate to register for that! lol

I'm not as tempted anymore. My shower is over and I didn't ask for registry stuff for Christmas. I don't expect wedding gifts til like Feburary. BUT I did go to add some stuff this weekend and I noticed a few things had been purchased that I didn't receive at my shower so I am a little perplexed! ha. Kinda hope I didn't get them for Christmas cause I wanted Christams to just be about me. With the wedding and the house so much of our stuff has to revolve around being equally for both FI and I or like the house. I can't start neglecting myself already!

I am having a hard time right now. My mom needed a gift idea for us for Christmas and I told her to just get something off our registry. And she told me she got our present the other day.

I am doing ok with not looking right now but I know when my shower invitation go out and I going to be so tempted. I have already seen on my BBB where 5 things have been purchased. But at the same time I try not to look so I can actually be surprised when I open gifts.

I'm a stalker. I'm almost bummed that my shower invites went out before Thanksgiving and only like 5 items have been bought. I'm figuring it will pick up after Christmas. On the other had we did get our first shower gift in the mail yesterday!

I stalk about once every few weeks. I had told my FMIL to just get us gifts off our registry for Christmas if she wanted to. Well she told me she was going to get us our flatware. Well no surprises there. FSIL also got us a few items off our registry but they were at FMIL house sitting in the shopping bag under the tree, again, no surprise. So since I knew what I was getting I looked at my registry to add a few more things. I saw that someone purchased our comforter set from Macy's. I thought it was my mom but we opened gifts this past Sunday at FMIL's house and she got us the comforter as well. Super excited because that was my favorite registry item. She also told me I needed to add more things to Macy's registry because that's where she likes to shop lol.

I so did this! Im tempting to do it again. I really want to take all the kitchen stuff off so people will by our linens and such! Isnt that terrible?

I'm definitely guilty of stalking. I jsut can't help it! We already received our first gift in the mail but FI won't let me open it until after the wedding!! So frustrating!!

Tell him you need to open it now so you can send a thank you card! Just don't use it until after the wedding :)
