haha! i would do something like that too...if only there was some sort of way to register without insulting people all around...i will say this much, i got a ton of gift cards when i had my daughter last year because my sister and girlfriend "casually mentioned" them in conversations lol! it was exactly what i needed and nobody was insulted! worked for my cousin too when she got married. anytime someone mentioned not having a clue what to get her, i would say "oh, well we are getting her a gift card. i know she had mentioned they have a lot of stuff already, and most of the registry has been purchased..."
