Retail sucks

So, I go out to get the newest Barenaked Ladies album today (Everything to Everybody), around lunchtime, fully expecting to buy the Special Edition of the release (which includes a DVD disc with some extras - a bit more expensive, but I like the band). Only problem is - nobody has the disc. And I don't mean just the Special Edition - I mean nobody has it...in any form (normal, limited, special)... period. I end up scouring the mall for over 35 minutes, asking one clueless clerk after another, until I finally find somebody who has it - only it is the Limited Edition, with just a few extra tracks. At this point I've had it, and just buy it out of defeat.

I've had it - if I'm planning on buying it when it comes out, I'm just preordering it on Amazon. I like the feel of having something in my hand and buying it directly, but enough is enough.
