Broadway and 234th Street in the Bronx
The signs on this store say it all; everything is 99 cents or more, or 99 cents or less - in other words, they charge money ...

This sign is actually part of a huge banner that stretches across a train trestle on a major thoroughfare in Hackensack. The entire sign is about 5 foot tall by perhaps 50 feet wide. I haven't the heart to tell the owners of the restaurant (which shall remain nameless) of the error, since correcting it would not be a mere matter of repainting that portion, but would require redoing the entire banner, no doubt at great cost.

I saw this sign on E. 22nd Street on what was then my daily walk to work. Pic was snapped in early 2008.

While attending the Kumbh Mela earlier this year, I stumbled across this (and many other) signs. This particular sign was outside a small playground.

I can only think they meant "foreign' as in estranger.

We were on a cruise of the Dalmatian Coast on the MV Artemis, a small ship owned by Overseas Adventure Travel. The sign was posted above the toilet in our cabin's bathroom.

all this clucking about bad English in signs ignores the fact that many of them are made by people for whom English is a second language. Without awareness of this, laughing at them is bigotry.

An auto lot on Ditmars Street at the corner of Myrtle Avenue in Bushwick, Brooklyn.
I guess they combined "We Finance" and "Refinancing"
