Sigh! These two words often get mixed up. If anybody cares:
COMPLEMENTARY: com·ple·men·ta·ry adjective \ˌkäm-plə-ˈmen-t(ə-)rē\
: completing something else or making it better : serving as a complement
€”used of two things when each adds something to the other or helps to make the other better
: going together well : working well together
whereas
COMPLIMENTARY:
com·pli·men·ta·ry adjective \ˌkäm-plə-ˈmen-t(ə-)rē\
: expressing praise or admiration for someone or something
: given for free
Full Definition of COMPLIMENTARY
Even though I am usually quick to spot errors, that is one I never would
have noticed!
