This is what I usually do too, sometimes depending on how close I am w/the person. If I know them well I'll do funny gifts like from spencers and then get the serious gift for the home. If it is just a friend or distant friend I usually just do a nice gift set from Bath and Body Works and then get a gift card to Victoria Secret or somewhere like that?

baby shower is much different i normally always buy from the registry for a baby shower. Being a mother i know what i had to have and you don't want to mess with returns when you are pregnant.Speedy70 said:My sis-in-law made sure everyone knew where I was registered for my baby shower.
for a wedding i do cash normally 50 but if it is someone i am close to or a family member i do cash and a small gift.

You must be related to my fiance. Only one person out of the 20 on his side at my shower bought something from my registry. So, I ended up with a crap load of dollar store rattles and bottles. Oh and I got an umbrella stroller that broke the first time I opened it.CMC122 said:I refuse to buy a gift from a registry

Believe it or not, I actually have almost 30 washcloths.
Other than that, I only received one other duplicate. Apparently, someone didn't pay attention to the "purchased" column.

Not a chance. I was joking by listing some of the ridiculous things that I got stuck with at my shower. I love you. I know that you are not that tacky.CMC122 said:

Ok, I'm going to a bridal shower in a few weeks and there really isn't hardly anything on the registry. And there is especially nothing that says "remember the cmc family gave us this for our wedding" so, I found this http://www.cooking.com/products/shprodde.asp?SKU=307348 and I'm going to supply a desert/dish for it once a month until their first anniversary.
Is that tacky?
