That word is frequently mispronounced as, "jew-la-ree."

Is now a good time to solicit additions to my cliche list? Good! 
Here are phrases that I eliminate from our clients' copy:

"personal service" 
"the friendly folks" 
"for your convenience" 
"knowledgeable / dedicated staff"
"don’t forget"
"that’s right"
"count on the professionals at..."
"plenty of free parking"
"that number again is"
"all your flooring/ automotive/party/housing/marine/etc. needs" 
"located at"
"the one for you" 
"your headquarters for___"
"stop by today"

Please add your own.
