Continuity mistake: After Chigurh kills the three Mexicans inside the motel room, the dead body of the second man with the meter in the hand changes position in two detached shots. At first he has his head on the ground, then he keeps it pressed from behind against the cistern toilet. (00:50:28 - 00:51:09)

Factual error: When Chigurh is in the gas station and throws the wrapper on the counter, the "Nutrition Facts" are visible on the label. Set in 1980, the "Nutrition Facts" label wouldn't have been available for at least another fourteen years, as nutrition labels were started in 1994.
