Need a laugh? Read these bloopers

Here's some classic advertising copy bloopers that I just read in Clayton Makepeace's newsletter. I'm sure Clayton won't mind me sharing them.

A housekeeping service:
Tired of cleaning yourself? Let ME do it!

A used car dealer:
Why go elsewhere to be cheated? Come here first!

A swimwear shop:
Our bikinis are exciting. They are simply the tops.

A mortgage company:
Ask about our plans for owning your home

A dry cleaner:
We do not tear your clothing with machinery. We do it carefully by hand.

They're good for a laugh ... just make sure you don't put any bloopers like this in YOUR ad copy!
