The same thing happened to my daughter. She said she wanted a "lint lizard" for cleaning out the dryer vent. Over the course of a couple of weeks. we looked around at the mall & local stores, but couldn't find it. Then one evening sometime later she was reviewing her emails and one of the pop-ups was for WHAT? Yes, the lint lizard! Strange since she never even looked it up on the internet on her laptop before then.

Yes- EVERYTHING you do on the internet is monitored for targeted promotions. Big Brother never sleeps, and never forgets. It is frightening.

I found a pair of motorcycle boots at a resale shop for $18 and bought them for my son. Then I started looking them up on line to find out how much they retailed for. Found out they were $550 Highway Patrol Uniform boots. Anyway, I'm still getting popup ads for motorcycle boots. Makes you wonder what the guys get as popups after they go searching for porn.
