Magic Springs Promotion





My dear daughter was not only excited about possibly getting to use this promotion to go to Magic Springs, but also she was delighted to show me the mistakes she found: 
1.  According to the calendar, the 11th of August is followed by the 15th. 
2.  The word "ticekt" should be ticket.

Hot Springs: Hot Bed of Mistakes


Tees doesn't need an apostrophe, but children's does.


No apostrophe needed. This one is from a Hot Springs, Arkansas, visitor's center.


Instead of We Sale, it should be written We Sell. This from an Econo Lodge.


The abbreviation for MANAGERS should be MGRS, not MRGS. I took this one myself and got a bit worried when a couple began staring at me because they thought I was taking a picture of them. They didn't seem like the type who would appreciate my finding the mistake on the sign, so I scurried to the car and left.






The comma after research is unnecessary because this is just a compound predicate, not a compound sentence. This is from a brochure promoting the building of a fairplex and passing of a sales tax in Saline County, Arkansas.




No grammar error exists in this sign, but I laughed when I imagined someone talking to a desk. This sign could be more accurately worded, "Please help us by informing the desk personnel." I HATE ALL CAPS!
