Estimated sales for this week is 100+K. Next week should be biggest sales week.

So this week she might be at 3.6M and in order ro 4.2M she needs 600k, but because of that store burnt in London, some shippments will never be sold, so actually she doesn't really need 600k, she needs a bit less..

You can reply 'never; 'impossible', 'don't be crazy' etc all you like but it WILL happen. It has got to 14x platinum in less than 11 months FFS!!

Girl as much as I love Adele, I ain't here for her snatching my Beatles. ![weeps](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v232/korn0818/ATRLSmilies/52b0f867.gif)
