OK, what have been your goofs in mixing up Brand names?

My old mum used to insist that the stuff you use to ease locks etc. was M40, not WD40.....

and I went into the chemist looking for some medicated shampoo, and asked them whether they had any T-Cut (not T-Gel) - that'd be fine if you want to strip all the hair from your head, madam....

A couple of years ago I was going shopping and one of the offspring asked me to pop into HMV for a CD he wanted.
Of course the name of the band and the title of the CD went clean out of my mind.
After a while I thought I had remembered the name of the band but couldn't find any of their CD's so I asked one of the assistants who said he had never heard of them, so I came home empty handed.
I had asked him about a band called Camping with Girls. The offspring have never let me live it down.
The band was called Scouting for Girls
Orbiter 'High Tea' is still a term used in Scotland and it can be a substantial meal

To us in the south (or to me anyway) it still indicates that it's a sit-down meal with usually a cooked light item (perhaps boiled eggs) and cake.
High Tea to us was a knife and fork job, instead of the usual bread & butter, scones, cakes &c.
