gift registries

Curated present guides

Gift registries are lists of desired items that couples, parents-to-be, or others create at specific stores, allowing gift-givers to purchase presents the recipient actually wants.

Most commonly associated with weddings and baby showers: They registered at three different stores.

The registry system prevents duplicate gifts and takes guesswork out of gift-giving, though some find it presumptuous.
