Best BB&B for Registering?

I have a feeling this has been asked before, but the search function isn't cutting it.

We went to the Bed Bath and Beyond at Fenway to register this weekend, and I was really disappointed in the plates/china/everyday dishware options. Can someone recommend a BB&B location that has a better selection of these? The guy mentioned that Somerville has more, but its being fazed out, and that Braintree has a lot.

Can anyone verify this before I drive all the way to Braintree, or give other suggestions?

    We registered at the BBB in Burlington.  I think it is one of the largest in the area.  They have the expanded china selection.  I'd definitely recommend going there, but I haven't been the Braintree one. 

    Also, if you want to do Crate and Barrell too, there is a HUGE new store at the Burlington Mall and also a good Macy's.

    The one in Somerville had a great China selection a few months ago but they have totally phased out most of it! I asked there and they also mentioned Braintree or Burlington.

    Good to know-- I think Burlington will be easier to get to. Thanks so much! Glad I didn't bother trying to get to Somerville.

    Just to agree, we went to Fenway to register and yah it is a smaller store.  I ended up spending 3 hrs on their website after we left the store registering for so much more stuff.

    The one in North Attleboro has a great assortment of china.  We registered in Foxboro and they didn't carry any, and I don't think Dedham does either.

    Burlington has a very large selection of a lot of stuff, not just the china. It's probably worth the drive.

    I just registered this weekend! We went to the BB&B in Somerville, but instantly turned around when they basically told us the Burlington store has all the china and is one of the largest stores in the area. I highly recommend the Burlington location!

    Just to add- For anyone in the north shore/NH area, I actually went to the one in Newington, NH and they had a great selection!

    We went to Everett. They were really helpful and the store is big. But they don't have a china section. I ended up also going to Macys to register and found a set of China there I loved it. I found it on the BB&B website and added it online later on.

    This is great to know.  I didn't know they were different!  We were planning to go to Everett or Somerville but we'll definitely go to Burlington now!
