How to make a Buy Buy Baby registry?

You will need to enter the following information in order to create your registry: your name, address and email. After you have filled in all the information, you can add items to your registry. If you don’t know what you want, you can search the site or use the registry checklist.

Use your Buy Buy Baby registry

After we signed up, Buy Buy Baby took us to the main page of our registry where we could add items or get suggestions. You can explore their collections like “baby on a budget” and “city baby”. You can also “analyze my registry” which breaks down gifts by price range (from “under $25” up to “$300+”) and recommends the number of items that fit each price range. You’ll have 100 items if you follow the instructions. However, it’s a good starting point if your not looking for baby gear yet.

A baby checklist is also available that lists the essentials for each product category, such as toys, nursing, and bathing. As you add iterms items to your registry, things automatically get added to the checklist. Did we mention that there is a thank-you list? If that’s your organizing tool, it might be useful to have a bunch of lists. It might be more stressful to see so many suggestions from so many places.

Although we don’t love the registry’s design, Buy Buy Baby has a great selection. You can find every type of product and all the major brands on it. It is easy to add an item.

How to return a registry item?

No matter whether you purchased a product online, in-store or online, both can be easily returned within one year. Although Buy Buy Baby allows you to ship returns before, they are currently not accepting returns in public stores.

You can return an item in person by bringing the gift receipt and your item. If you are applying for credit, you will need to bring along a photo ID issued by the government. An employee can search your registry or order number to locate the product if you don’t have receipt. What if you don’t have a receipt or your gift was not purchased from your registry? You might still be eligible to return the item for up to 80 percent of its value.

Our review

Buy Buy Baby is the brand that you will think of when thinking about a traditional baby registry. The store is exclusively baby-focused and offers a wide range of products to help you get started in parenthood. It accepts expired coupons and is big on couponing! We love the, which offers parents many benefits such as a 15% completion discount, a free virtual or in-store consultation, a goody bag, and easy returns.

Some of Buy Buy Baby’s perks, such as the goody bag, require you to actually go into a store. The problem is that Buy Buy Baby has only 135 locations across the country. You must be within close proximity to one of these locations in order to fully take advantage of your registry.
