It does make it hard but I can see why they do it but you can feel guilty at how much you give.

For our wedding we had a myer registry and a flight centre registry so people had a choice of what they did, (some still bought gifts from other places which was fine, others gave us nothing not even a card)

I must say a card is a special thing and I love giving and recieving cards! DH still needs to learn about cards every birthday and valantines day I tell him I want a card!! This year he made me a card night before birthday as I was sooking LOL
