I am visiting the tiny island of Barbuda (part of Antigua and Barbuda in the Caribbean) and found this lovely bit of abuse. I really want to know what the villa owns! There is also a place called “Extra Mans Bar” but I haven’t gotten a picture of that one just yet.

Jamie spotted this at a Safeway in Hollister, California:

My husband & I went for nachos at a neighborhood bar last night. We’ve eaten there many times, but last night was the first time I’d noticed the unnecessary apostrophe on the receipt. As soon as I saw it, I knew what I had to do. 🙂

The other day my husband and I went to a restaurant and had the worst service ever, though we were the only customers in the restaurant. My irritation only got worse as we went to the cashier and saw these signs, all with incorrect apostrophe usage. Argghh!

They *could* get a pass on the Tips jar; sometimes a stem is just a stem. Based on the remaining abuses, however, I think not.

Darcy sent in a link to a story about this Dunkin’ Donuts sign that

…is kind of old, but I thought you guys would enjoy it. Thankfully, it was corrected fairly quickly.

Allie spotted this sign at Stop & Shop in Malden, MA. Maybe there is some event called “Open Sunday” that lasts from Noon until 11pm.

Perhaps the hero of the Americas (North, Central, South) is on board!

Kay sent in this photo of the Towne Grill,

…a favorite diner spot. We always read the sign as “Town-EE Grill. Food At It Is Best.”

The odd thing is, this is its second location … and when they painted the new sign on the new location, they kept the abused apostrophe. Tradition!
