You also have an overstock on “p”’s too.

 
Comment by Marrock

Walmart fails in ways too myriad to list…

 
 
Comment by gahengsta

At least they picked the correct “too”…

Comment by Rue

Yeah, I was going to comment that I find it ironic they can pick the correct “too” (which is such a common English fail) but completely fail to spell “oops,” which is spelled exactly as it sounds?! Wtf.

I call that common error “Special Opps.”

 
Comment by M

I just noticed:

Someone tried correcting it, at least.
You can see the “O” written in pen over the first “P.”

…They probably should’ve used a Sharpie instead, but at least someone tried to fix it, right?

Comment by Vickie

Not if it was a customer who tried to fix it!

Comment by M

Well then the customer gets a big kudos for being OCD enough to attack that sign with a writing implement. I would’ve just walked away as fast as possible, pretending like I never saw it… otherwise it would drive me nuts for hours.

Unless it was an employee more intelligent than the sign’s creator. Who knows? :)

Comment by Laura

Glad to know I’m not the only one who has gone around considering (and sometimes succumbing) the desire to correct mistakes on public postings!

Gee, now where would someone get their hands on a Sharpie or other permanent marker in the middle of a Wal-Mart? That’s asking a lot.

p.s. Is the contributor really “Micheal”?

Comment by admin

Yep, that’s how he had his name spelled in the email.

 
 
Comment by L

How hard is it to print out another piece of paper with the correct spelling?

 
 
Comment by Jeff

I’m pretty sure this one is on purpose, seeing how it’s a sign for a mistake batch of baked goods. It’s like “Err on the side of caution”, etc.

In this case, you all FAIL.

Comment by Anon

What? “Oops” is used to emphasize mistakes.
