Spot the Superfluous Apostrophe Update

Thanks to the jenius for this one:
"Purchase 6 Vittoria Coffee's and enjoy your 7th FREE OF CHARGE"

So as to my understanding this sentence could either be saying "Purchase 6 Vittoria Coffee is and enjoy your..." or alternatively the "and" in there may belong to the "6 Vittoria Coffees" but even then it should be "Vittoria Coffees' "

When will the madness end?!

It's that sort of thing that makes a game like this possible.
