Most Useless Registry Gift

What did you and FI register for that really has absolutely no practical use, but you just had to have it? I think for us it was either the margarita glasses or the salt & pepper shakers in the shape of pigs lol Glasses are useful, but how often will be make margaritas? And for the shakers....I just...

    We registered for lots we wanted, and some needed, but things we wouldn't buy for ourselves. Like cheese knives. How often to you use them? Rarely! But great to have when we needed them! Or we registered for lots of games, lawn chairs (for when we have kids and go to their games!). People want to buy you thinks so we registered for things we might want but don't need now. Like a 12 cup coffee maker. It's just the two of us now, but when family visits it's nice to use. Or 16 wine glasses. Once again, 2 of us, but for Christmas dinner sure is nice!

    @OGLaura: I wanted the Kate spade plates. Put them on originally, then FH told me he didn't like them. I tried so hard to keep them on.

    Honestly, for ours it's probably the decanter that we got for Whiskey. We don't drink whiskey, but I thought the bottle was pretty. Of course that's one of the first items we got. Well I poured my Crown in there and it just sits there. I like the Crown bottle too...so it was sad to throw that one out.

    Ugh. I think I've only ever seen DH order a Moscow Mule at a bar once. He drinks beer. Not cocktails. But apparently he "loves" them and "needed" four cups. At $25 a pop. My aunt bought us $100 worth of Moscow Mule mugs and just to prove he'd use them, he made a White Russian in one last month. Wtf.

    I need to re-evaluate our registry there aren't enough fun items on it. I think the closest to unnecessary is a lime green mixer. The mixer will be used, the lime green because we're color freaks.

    OMG OrgLaura did you see the vases and picture frames? I somehow talked FH into the cake set too. That and Le Creuset. Obsessed. #sorrynotsorry

    ETA: Also my chicken salt and pepper shakers. It was between the piggy ones WWKatie posted or the chickens.

    Kate Spade toasting flutes are probably the most useless thing. I love champagne and Kate Spade but I have yet to use them since the wedding. Usually I just pour champagne into a wine glass. Margarita glasses on the other hand we use all the time. But those weren't a registry gift. We registered for an electric griddle. I was worried it would be useless, but we use it all the time.

    Probably a G dish FH registered for. It's tiny and I have no idea what to do with it.
