I saw this sign at Tesco in Loudwater, Buckinghamshire today and thought it would amuse/horrify you, as it did me. If this represents the business community’s grasp of grammar and punctuation, we’re all doomed!

I know someone who regularly uses “you’re” to mean “your”, and it drives me insane! I actually think it’s worse than using “your” to mean “you’re”, which a lot of people do, as I’m sure you know.
I haven’t got the heart to mention it though.
