I found two grammatical problems when I was in Sunnyvale this Friday.
The both stores were a salon. The first had the world "acials" instead of "facials" painted on the window. The second salon had "Walk ins - Welcome" The hyphen should be placed in front of "walk." The entire phrase should read "Walk-ins are welcome"

Something else I found was in an old yearbook. The editor had a fun time using commas, and thus ended up abusing the punctuation. The following are mistakes that should be corrected:
"...Branham has a very bright future(,) as students and staff..."
"Take a look back and reflect on the accomplishments that these Bruins have achieved ... Like blazing comets..."

The first two look good -- 4 pts. each.
The next two are unclear, and your link isn't complete/working so I can't check it out. Maybe you could bring it in as a hard copy.
