Stray peeve

[davidlevine]

This peeve just wandered in and I'm wondering if I want to adopt it as a pet: people who write redundant things like "$25 dollars." I've seen it in several professionally-produced ads from reputable companies and it just makes me shake my head in sorrow.

That one irritates me, too. Trying to be charitable, I sort of assume they pick it up from the correct usage of "$25 Million."
