Last year I bought a jacket I really liked, and I wanted to buy another one. So I went looking for them online. For the next six months, all though summer really, I kept seeing ads for jackets I wasn't interested in. I did a few searches "one day" but saw jackets for the next six months.

I also see a lot of ads for Ferrari and watches I'll never buy.

My favorite is Hawaii. Google has figured out I own property in Hawaii and that I go there a few times a year. What they haven't figured out is that I don't need a hotel there, and that I already know the lowest price for me to fly there.
That's one conspiracy I will buy into - This is weird - My mum lives in Spain but has gone to Portugal for 3 months for 'financial' reasons...

I swear before even I knew she was going Google showed me ads for flights to the local airport.....
