Free subscription, free listings (and paid advertising as well), the OPEN Daily is designed to promote local businesses, offer updates from Westside schools, and keep you informed about community action items. We’ll also feature local bloggers and great deals and giveaways. Check it out: TheOPENDaily.com.

Why Do You Ask? http://sarahauerswald.com/2008/11/16/yes-i-was-an-english-major-why-do-you-ask/ http://sarahauerswald.com/2008/11/16/yes-i-was-an-english-major-why-do-you-ask/#comments Sun, 16 Nov 2008 19:35:46 +0000 Sarah Auerswald http://sarahauerswald.com/?p=38 I have a pet peeve, and it's a bit quirky. I don't like seeing incorrect grammar use in public. And no, I will make no apologies for it.

For years I have cringed as I waited in an express line with a sign overhead reading "10 items or less." AARRGGHHH. Like nails on a chalkboard to me, people.

So imagine my delight when our newly remodeled local VONS grocery store put up THIS sign:
Gramatically correct

Thank you, Corporate Headquarters of Safeway! You have made my day!

I posted more about the entire remodel over here at Mar Vista Mom, my newly re-launched site dedicated to All Things Mar Vista.
