What kind of food do they sell, anyway?
Saying their business 'excepts' food stamps instead of ''accepting' them completely changes the meaning of the phrase. This sign should read "We ACCEPT food stamps." Somewhere, I'm sure the grammar teacher of the person who lettered this sign is shaking her head.
Judge us by our food, not our spelling!
Besides the fact that 'aligator' is missing an extra 'l', there's also a random period after shrimp. 'Aligator' should be spelled 'alligator,' as most Louisianians could tell you.

Calling All Single People!
If you are in fact single, keep walking by the wearer of this shirt! Wet Seal is selling a shirt that says, "If your single, so am I." Not only is the message trashy, but if anyone is desperate enough to wear this shirt, she might not be the best catch due to her obvious lack of grammatical know-how.
"Your" is used incorrectly on this shirt. It should be "You're" because it is being used as "you are," the contraction.
