But she came back with the regular deluxe  And Best Buy is a 20-30 minute drive from where I live and I don't drive (me and my friends were in the area so we went, I was supposed to get it Tuesday with my brother) so I wasn't leaving without the calendar. So I told her that it was different from the version I wanted so she went to the manager (I assume) and she seemed so annoyed by this point  Then she went back again and came back with the calendar edition  She looked so over it when I apologized for the inconvenience  But I wasn't leaving without my calendar

So a similar thing happened to me today. I went to Target, Walmart, and Best Buy and it wasn't out at any of them (and Sucker was out at Target and Walmart so it wasn't even like them being late due to the weird Monday release date this week). Best Buy was just a ****ing mess. The only Nicki album they had was a standard version of Pink Friday that was under the Avril Lavigne label. They didn't have any albums released this week out or even K Michelle's album which was supposed to be a Best Buy exclusive that came out last week.
And I'm starting to think our Walmart might just not carry rap anymore. There wasn't a Nicki section and they had Sucker, LiveSOS and the Into The Woods soundtrack that all came out today.
Long story short. I did not buy The Pinkprint today. Onika will get my coins eventually, but I'm either gonna try Best Buy later in the week for the calendar or just cop a standard version from Amazon (I like the deluxe tracks, but for listening to the cd in the car I'm fine with a standard).
