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.
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?
You also have an overstock on “p”’s too.
Walmart fails in ways too myriad to list…
Whopps!
At least they picked the correct “too”…

I call that common error “Special Opps.”
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?
Not if it was a customer who tried to fix it!

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”?
Yep, that’s how he had his name spelled in the email.
How hard is it to print out another piece of paper with the correct spelling?
Apparently?
Very.
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.
What? “Oops” is used to emphasize mistakes.
