Nice to Haves
Posted by: only1tcb on: March 14, 2010
Should a couple register if they don’t really need anything? I’m leaning towards no. We’re no spring chickens, so it’s not like we need a bunch of stuff to start our lives together. We have everything we need.
I read somewhere that couples that have everything should register for “nice to have” items. Let’s see, it might be nice to have the following:
1. A fully funded honeymoon
2. Mortgage free living for at least a year
3. A butler and maid
4. A driver
5. Six month paid vacation
Where can we register for these “nice to have” items?

I am having the same debate with my fiance. I’m 35 and he’s 40, so we’ve got most of the everyday stuff we need.
I recently read about a site called wishpot.com where you can register for big ticket items like a sofa or a trip. It’s allows people to see the long-term goal you are working towards and contribute their “gift”.
It is a bit like asking for cash, but it seems classier b/c you are letting everyone know what the money will be spent on. And let’s face it, a person only needs so many toasters.
