Please state in which country your phrase tends to be used, what the phrase is, and what it should be.

Example:

In America, recently came across "back-petal", instead of back-pedal. Also, still hearing "for all intensive purposes" instead of "for all intents and purposes".

I agree that this is very vaguely irritating, but for me it only differs by one sound and a vowel quality

"I couldn't care less" [aɪ̯.kɘ̃ʔ.kɛɹ.lɛs] vs "I could care less" [aɪ̯.kɘ.kɛɹ.lɛs]
