RIAA Soundscan Report for 01.03.08"
The RIAA Soundscan Report for 01.03.08 shows, yep, plenty of copies of In Rainbows available at Wal*Mart. We will keep you posted.
Some Wal*Mart buying tips to my Radiohead funny monkeys...
1. Don't forget the $11.88 is a fixed price. Haggling or negiotiating price or attempting to forcibily name your own at the checkout register might give in-store security the opportunity to go ape-shit on some punk kid.
2. Try and be friendly to the fucking greeter on your way in. Grumbling or mumbling something to them attempting to impersonate your alter-hero Thom Yorke is not respectful frankly of old people. And generally greeters are old retired folks. So, please be kind - one of them might be my dad.
3. Be thankful you are saving over $3.00, but please do not draw attention to this fact, just get your crack, pay the girl at the register, and try and walk out appearing to be un-aimless. The only thing bigger than Wal*Mart is Google and the only thing bigger than Google is the FTC. And just who ate the $3.10 (21% discount) or what they got in return sometimes is a small bone the pesky FTC likes to pick especially around the selling of corporate records (the thing you are holding in your hand) in retail stores.
Anyhow, ahhh, the joys of big corporate record sales and the retail back office dealings of cooperative advertising allowances that I can only imagine the FTC never ever gets to hear about. So, shhh, I won't say anything if you don't.
Enjoy your Wal*Mart corporate rock my funny Radiohead monkeys :-)
