Bad spellers of the world untie!


Here's what it looks like it says:

Cif
demostis
£10
Rise nits
Chef coffee

Here's what I think it's supposed to say:

Cif (cleaning product that used to be called Vim and then Jif until a few years back when Unilever, the makers of Jif,  changed it because there was a brand of lemon juice called Jif - like anyone would get the two mixed up. Ammonia on your pancakes, anyone? However the reason for the name change was "product streamlining" apparently, even though it's also known in some countries as Viss, Handy Andy and Jif.)
Domestos ( a brand of bleach that's been around for eons, with the same tagline "Kills 99% of all known germs - dead." Kind of redundant.)
£10
Biscuits - a bit non-specific for my liking. Surely these people have favourites?
Cheap coffee - Ah, I see. Now we get to the crux of the matter. They want cheap coffee and non-specific biscuits because they are clearly buying them for someone else.



But still - demostis? Really? That's not even close. True, the consonants are where they are supposed to be, but the vowels are way off.

£10?
