I admit: gift registries used to float somewhere beyond my consciousness. Then I realized that it's much nicer to get people gifts that they really want.. so a good friend had a baby shower recently and I was delighted to set up a registry for her.
In fact, it is really fun to set up a few gift registries each month for Metro Minis customers.. nobody is more surprised than I am to find it's one of my favorite things to do.
It's always interesting to discuss with new parents what slings, diapers, toys they enjoy and why. What do they look forward to? What do they think they want? What will the baby play with at 6 months? What will we need right away when the baby is born? What will the baby be doing at a year? Will I really be able to carry my kid until 3? (*Answer: I did not always, but it was really good for me to keep it open as an option.)
Sometimes they will want an item that is not on the website and I get to add it. Sometimes we don't want a particular item available to the general public on the website, so I get to add it anyway, but in such a way that it is visible on that particular gift registry and nowhere else, which appeals to my inner rebel. So you must let me know if I can help you set up a registry. And especially if there is something in the store you wanted, but didn't see it on the website. Because I may be able to put it on there for you!
We have oodles of toys on the website now and more to come, both in the store and on the website. Light a fire under me & get them online!

Nice post. Many websites have gift registry services and it's so convenient. If can't find in website, it'll be difficult to buy as requested.
ReplyDeleteThank you! I will insert some links right now. I was just in the store yesterday & saw we have a HUGE order of new PlanToys coming in the next couple of weeks. Yay!
