I was at Costco today and finally found CR there. I picked out all the ones I could find and put them in front of the others so they could be easily seen. If ya can't see them ya can't buy them. I did the same thing at Walmart. I was just helping to advertise Carrie. Ya know anything to give our girl and edge. Thanks goodness for "Mother's Day". Love the sales increase. I am just like a kid the more I get the more I want. Therefore, I want to see more increases in the future.

You make me laugh, not because you are just so funny, it is that I do the same thing at every store I go to. Makes me feel like a teenager trying to sneak in the house without waking my parents.

mee too, I do that all the time

teesharky

I do that too--- especially when they put carrie in the back and taylor up front. lol I saw some taylor fans once putting taylor's cd in front of the carrie cds--- to keep carrie from selling. So I waited till they left- and put carrie's front and center- and put taylor's back where they were supposed to be- in her section, not covering carrie. I was so mad! lol

Look at that "Some Hearts" : it keeps going, and going, and going .

Jade_kt

Awesome Update. Go Carrie Go!!!!!!

Jade_kt

Some Hearts just won't die

pandy

I hope Carnival Ride goes on and on and on.

carrieidol1

omg, this is so amazing.......wow, well anyways here is my prediction

CR: 23-27k
SH: 13-16k

and next week with the Opry boost, and a possible ACM hype boost things should stay relatively the same, and then the week after, more slight increases with the ACM boost along with the Idol boost.

It also looks like Toby may very well give Niel Diamond a seriously close run for his money.....poor Clay btw, it looks like the overestimated him, he looks headed for maybe 80k if he's lucky.....well HDD's original predictions were way off this week.

rainbow1

I love these updates!!

bresenolouie

Oh boy!!! A lawyer and a retired US Naval Officer, acting like a teenager!!!

I do the same thing. And my birth year is 1974. Our beloved Carrie is very lucky.

In Walmart near my house, "Some Hearts" album is in three section - Country CD, American Idol CD and Pop/Rock CD and "Carnival Ride" album is in four section - Country CD, Best Seller CD, American Idol CD and CMT CD.
