Just because the high end of her prediction on HDD might be 1.24 million doesn't mean she'll hit that and its definitely doesn't mean she'll get that on Soundscan.

I know that

the HDD team has its own way to count sales, the same case with Billboard, but when Billboard said it crossed 900k on thursday, they didn t count sales from Walgreen, Amazon & Papa John's deal as they said in the post, though these sales will be counted in Soundscan's numbers.
And I also know that when HDD said 1,250M it doesn t mean she will automaticly be in these waters, she could end up with 1,150M. I know you are trying not to make us disappointed if she won t top it
I was just trying to motivate fans that Brit's record is still reachable at this point, that we can still make history, that all ain t said & done
