I like words and in particular unusual ones or incorrect ones. The attached image is of my barber's price list. It contains many examples of probably the most common grammatical error: incorrect apostrophes. Normally I find these annoying, but these are so egregious and there's so many in one place that it's become my favourite example. I will continue to have my hair cut there while they keep the sign.

Sign writing seems to be one profession where attention to detail, especially grammar would seem to be very important and neglected all at once. I can kind of understand "men's" and "kid's", but "ladie's"? That is just so wrong.

I wonder, do you get a discount if your sign comes back with errors? Do you have the opportunity to send a sign back to be re-done? Did the shopkeeper not notice the errors? Or, like me, did he find them so bad they were good and kept the sign anyway?
