there's a lot + something plural
(I am guilty of this one" Even educated people will say "There's a lot of people.." or "There's a lot of houses.." etc., when it should be "There are a lot of people" or "There are a lot of houses..." I think it is because it is so hard to say "There are" together without sounding like you have peanut butter in your mouth.
