| I'm just curious. We are getting married next Friday. When we went to get our license, we got a surprise. My fiance's cousin is the Recorder of Deeds at the courthouse where we had to go. When she noticed that we were there in her office to apply for the license, she ended up paying for it ($51) as a wedding gift to us. I thought that was really nice, and made an unusual, but practical gift. |

| For my bridal shower, one of my good friends gave me a laundry basket filled with really practical items for our home. Laundry detergent, dryer sheets, paper towels, toilet paper, tissues, tooth paste, shower cleaner, sponges, air freshener, scented candles, mouth wash, windex, towels, wash cloths, q-tips, cotton balls, bandaids, duct tape, etc. That gift was a lifesaver when we moved into our new place after the wedding!! |

| We received a folding step ladder (3 steps). I was suprised to see it, but actually it's very practical and we use it several times per week. |

| I dont know how unusual it is but one of my friends got me a set of books that you are supposed to put on the tables at the reception and the guests are supposed to write little notes to us in there... I really liked them and we will be using them, but I dont know if thats something I would have gotten for myself. But they will be a nice keepsake for later on! |

| Mostly cleaning supplies...... And I got to try new ones and found out I love the wipe ones that have the chemicals already on them. Also my bridesmaids got me a huge platter that everyone signed- I love it because it's a memory- and I use it constantly for cookies, meat, fish, parties- you name it. To add the one thing I receive and have never used is pie plates! I already had 5 of my own and people bought me more... UGH.Oh and an unusual gift I gave a friend that she loved and her family uses constantly were these strange over sized plastic cups with fruit on them. I thought they were hysterically funny so I got her a set. They are so tacky but she said they use them constantly because they hold twice as much liquid! I see them out at every party! |
