Careless/embarassing/silly errors in various publications

From time to time, I come across peculiar entries in the tender bulletins I read through every morning.

I thought I'd start sharing them with you:

Two headlines seen outside varsity on the same lamp post.

There is a local tyre merchant: Marius Koekemoer Bande. The company that did his signage misspelled it Maruis Koekemoer Bande on everything from his shop to his bakkie and he is still driving around like that years later.
