Oops!!

Oh, Lord ...

We had a typo in this weeks Save-a-Lot grocery ad: Porn 'n' Beans 55 cents a can.

We had this same mistake once before but we found it before it went to press ... although the store manager already had the ad hanging on his door. No one had caught that one ...
They are faxed a proof of their ad so they have to share the responsibility.
This uh-oh is right up there with some others that got through on OTHER papers, including: Fart McPherson army base in Georgia; Buttons Bitches and Bows children's store; and Full-time Day Shit for a hospital job opening.

Addendum:
Ben said when he worked at Livingston newspaper (same one I used to work at, BTW)they scanned and converted to text a news release concerning online info about area state parks. The scanner read the "c-l" as a "d" and no one noticed until the aleady-printed headline read "State Parks fun is just a mouse dick away."
Said he almost got fired over that one.

It's possible that would be closer than a "click"
