And if you would be so kind as to mentally replace “enought” with “enough” in the previous post, I would appreciate it.

Well, I live in Australia, but I’m not sure that matters.
Google “from go to whoa” (over 9000 results) and “from whoa to go” (around 350 results). The latter do seem to be mainly from Australia and New Zealand, so perhaps it’s a regional mistake.
You haven’t heard TV ads which talk about a sale being on “while stocks last?” I find that very hard to believe. The incorrect one (“until stocks last”) turns up on Oz TV regularly enought to piss me off. It’s usually (but not always) a downmarket retail chain.
I’ve never heard either “From go to whoa” or anything like it.
Never heard “While stocks last” either, though “While supplies last” I hear all the time. This is probably a US/Australia diference.

And I just checked on the “From go to whoa” hits on Google and of the six I checked on the first page, five were associated in some way with Australia, and the sixth was associated with London.
So that probably explains it…
