EPIC Wal-Mart ATS Fail (United States)

So I was just at Wal-Mart and was browsing CD'S and what CD do I see??????? THATS FUCKING RIGHT, ATS!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I went up to the store manager and with ATS in my hands and said "See this Cd I'm holding, its due out Sept. 14th." He didnt believe me and looked it up using the UPC and sure enough....


They sold some of them too.

I would have boughten it but it was edited and I preordered the first day anyways.





Update: I called Wb and I only talked to security (on the actual lot) and he said that it was a huge concern and to call Monday because everyone went home because its a weekend

 

HAHA wow. I am so glad that people at Kmart have a bigger IQ than some of the workers at Walmart

 

Edited?

Good man for going up to the counter. I will out some extra cash in the money package for you.

 

Wow. How about just not selling it to people under 15 or whatever, that means adults have some shitty clean version.

 

Actually, the "legal" age to buy Explicit CDs is 17.

 

*sigh*......I swear everyone 10 year old knows the word fuck, there is no point in having it at 17.

Wal-Mart scuffs up like this all the time with entertainment releases.

 

For what it's worth a lot of stores sell big name albums before release date as soon as they get them. Not sure how often big names like Wal Mart and Target can pull it off, but a lot of smaller music stores usually do stick CD's out before release date.

 

As a HUGE Linkin Park fan, this really pisses me off. And I will be sure to let them know that it ruins the experience for fans when anticipating a certain date and all of a sudden its right there. There wasnt even promotion for the CD like they do with any new CD.

 

Am I the only weirdo right here, who wants to hear "clean" versions of explicit songs?

 

Probably.

 

In Australia there are massive embargos on Games and Movies moreso on games. I work in a major shop that sells music/movies/games - Music doesnt have embargo. Its not enforceable in Australia. So to get around this record companies make sure the Album doesnt get delivered until day of release. Which sucks because people who come in first thing in the morning can't get the record yet because we havent got it. Most big releases arive day of release - smaller bands/labels get shipped mid week.

 

It's official, every bad word that's said on the album has been switched with 'Peanut Butter'....

so...







"TRY TO KETCHUP, PEANUT BUTTAAAAAAAAAAA"

and the beat really goes PB&J.
