  I am only writing to express my absolute frustration with being not able to find an on-line registry and not being able to order on-line. We live over an hour away and myself and several of my friends have 5 baby showers coming up in the next two months. All of the new mothers-to-be have registered with Babies 'R' Us. The mothers-to-be have expressed some frustration over showers already held for them, that they did not receive anything off their registry and I now understand why. I, along with many others in today's economy, unfortunately, cannot afford to make one "big" trip to Babies 'R' Us and buy 5 baby shower gifts...I must do it paycheck to paycheck. I do undersatnd probably a few of the reasons as to why Babies 'R' Us does not offer on-line registry and shopping, but this is just one person expressing their frustration over this. I will now have to very reluctantly also buy these moms-to-be gifts that are not on their registry and hope for the best. I am just so disappointed and I know at least 4 friends who will also be at these showers, from this area, who are also very disappointed. If I have missed something on the webpage that does allow to view gift registration and on-line shopping, then...well...I would feel pretty silly for sounding off about this, but please let me know.

You know before the economy got the way it is...people still didn't always buy from the list.  What I do when I host a shower is say here is a sample of what the mother wants...include it in the invite and then choose from there.  Also theme showers gets them in the area of things they want so...try that.
