My friends and I saw this sign posted on the door at a Subway in Miami, FL. Good thing we’d already eaten before they ran out of “bread’s.” Waiting “an 1/2 half hour” for lunch would not have been enjoyable.

In their (or is it they’re? so not funny) defense, I’m better at grammar than baking bread’s, so perhaps all of their concentration is going to the baking and not the sign. But I still wouldn’t trust a baker who can’t use proper grammar.

…so 15 minutes from now should be about right for more bread’s? LOL
