Anyone planning a wedding?  Get engaged over the holidays?  Is this one reason you need to be thrifty right now?
If you are planning to register at Macy’s, you can make a “date” of adding items to your registry while sipping “fun beverages” (hmm, if you attend, let me know what this means:) and appetizers.¬† This event seems to occur at Macy’s throughout the country, so if you know an engaged couple, share the news!
To reserve a spot, call ahead or email as indicated in the links.
They also used a favorite phrase in the event information: free gift! What Thriftista doesn’t like a free gift?
