Show Notes
Grammar enthusiasts debate the Oxford comma, a comma before and in a list, often citing a book dedication to highlight its importance. However, courts typically dismiss obvious misinterpretations as scriveners errors if the intent is clear. Shoppers are now testing this on grocery labels for free milk, arguing misleading quantity claims. While some cases, like the Red Bull slogan, have led to settlements, companies generally avoid such claims on hype or minor mistakes. Courts maintain a balance, protecting deals without scrutinizing every word.
