Episode 106: Checking grammar would be easier if you didn't have to.

A local tire company, Belle Tire, as part of a television ad, created a screen shot saying "We shop the competition so you don't have to." I understand what they are attempting to say. They are saying we shop the competition so:

• You get the best deal
• You can make you first and last stop with us
• You can get rolling again.

They check the prices of their competitors so you can enjoy buying tires for you car, truck, or van. It is time to check their advertising so that you can enjoy proper grammar while watching television.

Episode 105: Another Example of Bad Grammar in Advertising to Choose from.

Belle Tire is a a local tire company that advertises that it has "so many tires to choose from." I heard this advertisement on the radio this past Spring. I wasn't sure if I heard the commercial correctly. This weekend I saw it on television and happened to have my close captioning working.

Belle Tire: Your Home for Tire Selection.

I doubt that they will change the commercial to "so many tires from which to choose."

Remember to change your clocks today.
