Registry According to Yahoo..... but not Etiquette
I found an interesting article on Yahoo today. I opened it thinking I'd see some registry suggestions I may have forgotten when we set up our registry last week. The first 6 or 7 were pretty standard recommendations. After that it gets iffy, and then just gets plain bad. That last three suggestions are "Honeymoon", "Wedding Costs", and "Charitable Causes". I think the "Wedding Costs" one is the worst. That's basically asking your guests to pay to come to your wedding. There's so much that could go wrong with that one. I'm curious to see y'all's reactions to the article.

[QUOTE]I saw that article this morning too! Aside from the horrible ending suggestions, I didn't think the article provided a whole lot of information anyway.

I agree. There wasn't anything listed that I know I hadn't already thought of. The statistics bugged me a little too. Just because someone didn't register for something doesn't mean they forgot it. We didn't register for a vacuum because we already have a Dyson.
[QUOTE]Anyone who registers for "Wedding Costs" can expect a white elephant from me. Literally. I will buy the ugliest white elephant statue or lamp I can find in an instance like this, even though we almost always give cash.

That article is so illogical. It's the asking part that's offensive.
