I hae noticed I do this all the time.. I write "alot" rather then "a lot", I really believe that it's supose to be written "a lot" which lead me to notice that alot of other people write "alot"

Example: I see her alot nowdays

So do you write "alot" or "a lot"

alot or a lot

I've always been taught that "a lot" is the only correct variant...

It has always been " a lot " for me. Could " alot" be just a typo?

It very well could be.. it just seemed like a significant amount of people write alot that it may have become accepted as the proper spelling.. that and I love polls. lately I will think of the stupidist things like anything from pen or pencil to long hair or short.. granted this wasn't too logical either..
