Thanks so much for the tip! I can’t wait to start using this! It is just what my family needed to find out what we want – without looking at multiple lists from multiple stores!

@Jacinda – Good point. You can select “reserve gift” on the person’s wish list, so that it can be marked as received. In fact, you can hide it from the wish list owner so that they don’t know it was purchased. Thanks for pointing that out!

@Gloria – It’s a little tricky. I just make the lists, let the family and friends know, and don’t mention it again. If they have specific questions, they’ll ask, and if they don’t want to use the list, that’s fine, too.

@Summer – I’d only say a pack-n-play is essential if that’s their only bed altogether. As in, no separate crib.
