    I'm one. It's terrible, but I can't help it. I am totally tht kid who searched the whole house to find my Christmas presents early.

    Anyways, yesterday I found out someone purchased the kitchen torch we registered for, and I am SO EXCITED!!! Like I giggle and do a happy dance everytime. I won't even be allowed to use it, I just think it is awesome (FI is the chef, not me) and it means we will eat creme brule more often.

    So I was writing to see if anyone else has an item or two that are the ones that make you giddy.

    Yay! How exciting! I'm going to try my hardest not to registry stalk, but I have a feeling it's going to be HARD!

    If for some crazy reason someone decides to buy me my Dyson, I may just die of happiness :)

    Yeah I stalk it. I get mad at myself every time I do, because I think it'd be more exciting to have the box show up at my house and be surprised when I open it...but I still end up checking it almost daily Embarassed

    I am stalking it for the Roomba vacuum. FI has a very, very fluffy cat, and I will want to vacuum more than he does currently, but I hate vacuuming, so we are super hopeful that someone will get that for us to solve that problem!

    Haha, I've been stalking my target registry because things go unavailable more often than not and then I have to replace them. Nothing wrong with stalking ;) it's actually encouraged to make sure things don't disappear!

    Yes I'm guilty too!  I put some really fancy sheets on and someone bought them!  As well as all of our bedding and a Le Cruset - which all makes me very happy.  ;)

    torch?! Fantastic! I would have purchased that for you b/c it sounds like a bada$$ gift. Congrats and i hope you can use it soon ;)

    I am definitely guilty of registry stalking...I check it daily- sometimes 3-4x.  I don't know why!  I always loved a surprise...I guess after I realized that our wine fridge was purchased (happy dance ensued!)  I couldn't help myself!  I also check the thank you manager...Sealed

    I'm also a registry stalker.  I love seeing gifts vanish from our registry!

    I stalked before my showers, just so I could remember which gifts were actually on the registry!! Nothing worse than saying "Thanks, you have such good taste!" (seriously) and the giver is scratching her head like "Uh.. but YOU picked it out!"

    I went on again yesterday to delete a bunch of high ticket items. NOt to sound ungrateful, but everyone is going as cheap as possible, buying the $10/$15 items and the $100plus are totally untouched. I'd honestly rather get $ at this point, so I got rid of them.

    Well...I've turned into one but default...my mom keeps going on my registries and then will call when one of the bigger things like my stainless steel pans were bought...she's awful!  But it was good that she was checking because I have 2 showers left and most of the items are bought already( the one last weekend was a large shower and i think that got most of the stuff)  So had to add a few more items from Target to make people happy.  Oh and FYI with Target, if an item says out of stock, it can mean that they don't have an order for it on the next truck(esp if a seasonal item)  I ran into this with some of my items.

    I'm psyched that people have suddenly (in the last 3 days) discovered the Amazon registry - we got a PS3!

    I'm still praying someone will snap up that Dyson though. It would make me do a happy dance too. :-)

    I have become a horrible registry stalker... and I love surprises! I never wanted to spoil any surprises ever, so this is so unlike me!
