"Surprise"

Now, this word, "surprise", is often spelt wrong (without the first "r"). This is probably because of how it is generally pronounced, but this is no longer acceptable!

When I was in London last week, I saw a sign for a shop called "Surprise, Surprise" ... except, it was spelt wrong. But only once. Not both times, which made it all the more ludicrous!
So now I am naming and shaming this shop for its half-bad spelling!
