What have we done to the ederkayshun in this country ?
Seen in a shop window when I just took a wander down to the village centre
:-
"WE HAVE MOVED A CROSSED THE ROAD"
It's enough to make you weep ...

The local florist had a sign in the window stating they would be open
all day on Wednesday's.
Other irritations:
less/fewer
lie down/lay down
me/myself
lens/lense
lend/borrow
disinterested/uninterested
x times less
x times more/x times as many
didn't used to
