You can always specify "no gifts, please," but like I said before, that won't stop the gifts from coming in, so to be sure you don't get a lot of what you don't want, you really should register for something.But if you can't think of anything you need, think of others in need. Many charities offer giving registries, or you can simply ask that in lieu of gifts, your guests make a donation in your honor to the charity of your choice.
My favorite charity, Heifer International, is one such charity offering a registry, but you can find plenty of others with a simple web search. JustGive.org allows you to register for over 1 million charities online.

This is a great idea. Even for those of us who don't have it all, do we really need the newest, coolest blender more than a child needs food, or cancer research needs funding? It's easy for me to say that now, though, since I have my cool blender . . .
