I have written over forty columns regarding advertising on television where the sentences end with prepositions. Yesterday I listed the first ten that I discovered. Here are another ten:
"Reviews you can count on"
"It gives you what you are looking for."
"Where the cancer is at."
"So they have something to write in."
"Flavors this good are worth searching for."
"We crunch the numbers so you don't have to."
"Having what you want on the network you rely on."
"The house next door was broken into."
"It is the best we are made of."
"In Alaska you vacation goes further. And Higher."
Can you guess which grammatical goof-up belongs to which company? Follow the links if you want to find out who made the goof-ups.
One person's commentary on how sloppy people have become with the spoken and written word. It all started with one commercial having glaringly bad grammar. I thought I would run out of material if I posted weekly. I was wrong. There are advertisers that need to go to grammar school.

Nutragrain gives you the grammar you are looking for... not
Nutragrain has an ad that has people walking the forest through. It makes me want to run my room from. It is amazing the number of commercials I have watched that a preposition they end with.
Nutrgrain is no different. "It gives you what you are looking for." Nutragrain - it gives you satisfaction. Cue the Rolling Stones.
