At least you are having a bigger shower. Mine is only 30 people & like you said, some of the items purchased I know are from my SIL but also we got 2 of the big gifts bought already from friends.

Re: Registry stalking question...

I just had my shower and some items I received never even came off my registry - but magically I got no doubles....

and like someone said in a PP I think that 1/2 the guests shop right before.

Have no worries you will receive all that you want / need and MORE!!!

I had about 30 people at my shower and if you look in my album there is a picture of most of the gifts - I say most because no one could get a shot with all of them in 1 pic LOL!!!!

it took 3 truck loads to get everything home.... OMG!!

Re: Registry stalking question...

My shower is this weekend and I have NOT looked at my registry since my invites went out. I'm being really good.

According to my MIL, not much has been purchased. I kind of wish she didn't say anything, because that made my urge to check even stronger. I was so tempted, but I knew I'd be mad at myself if I caved and checked it out.

But that was also a week ago, and based on the sloooow responses of the rsvp's for my shower, I'm guessing I have some very sloooow shoppers too.

I guess what is keeping me from looking at my registry is that I know I'll have to buy whatever I need myself, so why worry about that until I need to.

Re: Registry stalking question...

As soon as I registered a bunch of things went flying off my registry. Then nothing moved until the week before my shower. I think next week you'll see things coming off every day! Probably even this weekend too.
