Off to college this fall? Head to Target where you can get a FREE $20 Target Gift Card when you create a new College Registry. Just add at least 15 items totaling up to $500 and within 3 weeks, you’ll receive your FREE Gift Card via email. But don’t wait- this offer is valid for the first 10,000 only.
The standard greeting card with a check inside just doesn’t cut it anymore for some high school graduates. So they’re setting up gift registries instead, the latest twist on traditional bridal or baby shower offerings that is at odds with traditional gift-giving etiquette.
The registries are both an online and off-line phenomenon. Stores like Bed Bath & Beyond, Target and The Container Store offer gift registries or wish lists for new grads to compile their choices. And websites like DormSmart.com, MyRegistry.com and DormCo.com are making it easier for relatives and friends to give gifts to the registered college-bound freshman online.
