I saw this one in a Facebook ad. “Steak” is food and “stake” is a rod in the ground to support something.

My sister took this picture in the window of a WalMart hair salon. She wonders if they are already hiring for Christmas? She also thinks that a dollar sign wouldn’t be amiss.

My trusty news station comes through again. Tires/tries . . . unfortunately they don’t mean the same thing even though they share letters IN A DIFFERENT ORDER! Spell check won’t help here.

As I was paying to get out of a parking garage last weekend, I noticed this common misspelling. This word really DOES follow the “i before e except after c” rule.

I saw this while looking at my local Facebook Marketplace. I clicked to see what it was and was greeted with this. It should be “metal fruit bowl.” But it’s not, so no thank you!

A friend of my son’s sent this to him from Louisiana. I always think it is a shame when people spend big money on huge banners that have misspellings.

My cousin sent this one to me. Seems to me that if “intelligence” is part of the name of your event, you would figure out how to spell it correctly. This is particularly important if you are spending the money for such a big banner.

A friend sent this to me. Apparently, this company is not a master of spelling! It is pretty important that businesses at least spell things correctly.
