We finally got around to registering for our wedding (HBC Home Outfitters & Williams Sonoma if you care…) and discovered that real bargain hunters out there should really capitalize on this program. All you need to do is go to a place the offers a registry, create a fictitious wedding and registry, add all of the items you might ever possibly buy to the list, and then come back after your “wedding” and you can buy the items at a minimum of 10% (in our experience) less than the sticker price. HBC and Williams Sonoma offer this plan for 6 months after your event. Since we are planning on replacing a lot of our kitchen equipment, we added all sorts of things to our registry that we know no one will buy us as actual wedding gifts, but we know we want to buy them – and I’m a sucker for saving money.
You can also register for a “special occaision” like moving or whatever you decide to tell them! Happy Registering!!!
Don’t forget that good ol’ Canadian Tire has a registry too!
