Marks & Spencer’s left shoppers in stitches after an unfortunate spelling blunder.

The retail giant advertised a job as a customer assistant in their clothing and home department at one of their stores.

But instead of spelling the store Location as ‘Worcester’ they had it as ‘Worchester’.

Another added: “It would have said Woowoostarshar if that was the case.”

Social media comment on the post of Marks & Spencer left shoppers laughing after a job ad typo listed 'Worchester' instead of 'Worcester.' The mistake quickly went viral before being corrected.

A third joked:” It’s probably just a typo from someone out of the country.

“I don’t think I’ve ever had to write the name for this place and I’d have to look up the correct spelling too.”

A fourth quipped: “Where is it again?”
