Transcranial depression therapy advert on my GN page. confused. I was feeling pretty chirpy until I read that.

I’m now getting a Nick Faldo ad. Might be because OH told me he is off to the golf course for a walk. Hate to think our every conversation may be listened to.
The creepy skin one is still making me paranoid. Are “they” watching as well as listening?

I dislike the ads for earwax that show a lump of extracted wax - makes me feel sick!

Softcat Microsoft surface plus, whatever that is

I get the crepey skin one too. And now I have a no win no fee lawyers’ ad. Possibly because I mentioned to someone just now I was a solicitor?

I keep seeing an advert with a hugely pregnant belly on! Not even sure what it was for. Made me dream I was pregnant last night! Also one for Victorian plumbing. I'm sure there's a joke there somewhere, I just can't find it! smile

Made to measure blinds now.

FannyCornforth Wed 09-Feb-22 13:13:42

Yes. I get the crepey skin thing.
At least I have not had this dog for a few days…

Joymitty up to 50% off sale. I wouldn't buy from them though.

And an advert from ABM digital marketing and sales funnel automation 8 week bootcamp. What on earth is that?

I hate those funeral plans - so depressing

Tree surgeons in Hampshire. I don’t even live in Hampshire!

They were spying on you long before Alexa came along.

Sandals All Inclusive holidays. My worst holiday nightmare!

Well if you have Esspee that makes two of us, I've also had the one for "Crinkly, Crepey Skin" on legs, still it makes me grateful when I see the pictures that I haven't got any.

‘Miracle’ knee brace available on the NHS - ever since I was diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis and had treatment for a swollen knee joint. How do they know ? I have a suspicion that Alexa is spying on me !!

Weighted blankets.

MissAdventure Wed 09-Feb-22 12:45:59

Private earwax removal.

Esspee Wed 09-Feb-22 12:44:35

To the right on this page I have a “Crinkly, Crepey Skin?” advert.

I wonder if I have been specially selected for this? Off to the bathroom to have a look in the mirror……

What adverts are you being targeted with?
