    Macy's and BBB. And honestly the only reason we registered at Macy's was for dishes. BBB has basically everything haha.

    Amazon!

    and Bed Bath and Beyond, which is where most of our stuff is, since our guests don't seem to be quite as tech savvy as I expected. I actually moved some stuff from Amazon to BBB, even though Amazon had better prices on the exact same product.

    We registered at Macy's and at Myregistry.com.  Myregistry allows me to browse store sites and register for what I like from those sites.  It's great because we don't end up with 10 different registries!  And I also bypass many of the "no-return" policy (if needed) of many registries because the gift is purchased as a regular item.

    We registered at BBB, Target, and Williams Sonoma.  Most of our guests bought off the Target registry, but our plates and silverware came from BBB and several small appliances came from Williams Sonoma.

    We went to Bed Bath & Beyond first, and then realized we didn't need that much at Target. Our Target registry has different stuff on it though, like tennis raquets, a TV and a camera lens.

    Target and Bed, Bath, and Beyond.  I'm  hoping I don't have TOO many problems with Target like others have.  I did find out today that our pot/pan set at Target is on clearance. I'm sad about that becuase we already have a few that match- my mom laughed at me.

    We registered at Macy's, Crate and Barrel, and Amazon.com ... The C&B and Amazon ones are my favorites.  I wouldn't have a Macy's one if I didn't have our bedding on it.

    We registered at JCPenney's and Kohl's.  I really wanted to register at Bed, Bath, and Beyond, but there isn't one near my home/most of my family and it was really important to me that they could either buy online or in the store.  Stinky cause I drooled over the BB&B website forever, but it's ok.  I figure that I can use wedding money to buy stuff from there! :)

    We registered at Target and Macy's so far. Planning on registering at Crate and Barrel, Kohl's, or Bed, Bath and Beyond. We weren't happy with registering at Target. They didn't really have stuff that we wanted.

    We just registered this weekend! We picked Target and Bed Bath & say, Beyond. I have to say, I was very pleased with BBB! The lady that helped us get started was so helpful and nice - she even offered to change the music in the store to whatever we wanted! Their website it very helpful to, with a wedding day countdown and it lets you know how many things you have registered for and how many have been bought, etc.  And I didn't know this but BBB carries luggage too!

    BBB, C & B, a local high end gift store, and My Registry

    I have guests from all over so i was trying to make it easy, but my local guests really like the local store. Plus my china isn't very common and they carry it. I had W-S, but had so many problems I cancelled it and found the items on the other registries.

    I have noticed that almost no one is using My Registry-I hope that changes as we get closer to the reception.

    Bed Bath and Beyond and Amazon.com.  Amazon cause they have a bunch of stuff Bed Bath didnt have, a lot of selection, good prices, and lots of free shipping!

    I only did Target and Macys because between the two of them they had everything we needed. And since we have been living on our own for about three years and just had a housewarming the beg. of this year, we have all the major stuff.
