Confusing labelling at the Rugby branch of Sainsbury’s earlier this year — and this is in addition to the fact that the name of the product on the label should be capitalized:
raspberries labelled jersey potatoes
Businesses that don't bother checking their websites, journalists who write gibberish and balderdash, professionals who can't take the extra time and effort to spell-check and proofread, newspapers that turn tragedy into farce through solecisms, plus the odd guide to solving common grammatical difficulties… Contributions and suggestions welcome. (… Also corrections if required, obviously!) Send to: manglingenglishATgmxDOTcom, stating your nom de mangle (if desired).
