Me to a friend: "My computer is really slow, I think I am going to buy some RAM for it"
~Goes to YouTube later that day~
First recommendation: What kind of RAM is best for your computer?
So I'm properly freaked out as I hadn't yet begun to research anything.

It wasn't an advertisement, but Youtube did a similar thing last month when I was thinking to my self "Man I haven't watched the Red Green show in like forever" and then when I went to Youtube later that day an episode of Red Green showed up right in my suggestions.
And I've been binge watching the show ever since because they've officially uploaded the entire series onto their channel.

A few years ago I purchased two cans of Sprite with cash at a kiosk in London.
No electric transaction, not a chain store but yet it became a ‘page you might like’ on Facebook an hour later.
They’re watching. And they KNOW.

My brother once said, “We’re out of iced tea” and got Facebook ads for iced tea for about a year. A co-worker showed me his new wallet and now I’m getting tons of Facebook ads for wallets.

Google ads kinda ruined a bday surprise one year.
I bought the jewelry in store but I was viewing their stuff on my phone. Days later my gf saw my Google ads were all jewelry and asked if I was shopping for her

Next time my uptight bookkeeper steps out of the office and forgets her phone I want to walk in there and say "sex toys and anal lube" nice and clear like a dozen times

I'm going to begin shouting random household products at my phone tonight and see what sticks!

I was looking up restaurants while I go away and next day on FB an ad for one of those restaurants came on my feed
