Bestselling Products

The following is a list of the bestselling products on Amazon.com in 2006 by total units sold:

Books: Good to Great: Why Some Companies Make the Leap ... and Others Don't by Jim Collins (((probably because the leaping companies are working instead of reading biz bestsellers))))

Music: Taking The Long Way by Dixie Chicks (((proof that in the long run it pays to despise George Bush)))

DVD: Pirates of the Caribbean - Dead Man's Chest (Two-Disc Collector's Edition)

Software: World of Warcraft (((Warcrack claims ever more hordes of the newly desocialized undead)))

Electronics: Apple iPods (various) (((America's tastiest DRM scheme)))

Home & Garden: Calphalon Commercial Hard-Anodized 12-Inch Everyday Pan with Lid

Health & Personal Care: Pampers Cruisers (various sizes)

Grocery: Senseo Douwe Egberts Dark Roast Coffee Pods (((I have never before heard of these things. They are clearly the hit of the season. Guess I'd better google 'em)))

Those coffee pods are just wrong for so many reasons. Grind your own beans people!

I agree with the other poster, grind your own beans instead of using the "pods"! I received a beautiful new grinder for Christmas. :) I bought my son the 2 disc Pirates of the Caribbean.
I also have several of the Calphalon anodized pans.
Can't comment on the Pampers Cruisers....

Music: Taking The Long Way by Dixie Chicks (((wanted it bad, was afraid my big brother the heavily armed dixiecrat neocon would beat me up for listening to it)))
