Registering Tips
<b>Expand Your Thinking</b> You can now register for everything from bicycles to power tools to the down payment on a new home. Place settings are still very popular, but don’t limit yourself to that. There's much else to consider.
<b>Keep Prices in Mind</b> Register for gifts in a range of prices so every guest will be able to afford something. Average amount spent: $50 to $150.
<b>Consolidate</b> It's hard to keep track of five different registries. Try to find a registry or store that has most of what you want all in one place.
<b>Convenience Is King</b> Make sure guests all over the country can access your registry online at any time, day or night.
<b>Consider "Giftability"</b> As much as you might need one, guests don't love giving bathmats as wedding gifts. Make sure you'd give what you want to get.
<b>Update Your List</b> Keep track of what gets bought. Add more items to your list once all that remains are the $10 kitchen gadgets and the $500 cookware set.
