    Right now I have ads for baseball tickets and Fiber One wants me to add them on pinterest. In the past, AdChoices has suggested in the MFP margins:

    -beef jerkey
    -Pillsbury cinnamon rolls
    -betty crocker cookies
    -everything zulily has ever made

    I've currently got adds for Urban Decay makeup on here because I'm constantly browsing makeup places at work. Oops heheh.

    Although I have adds from Dominos and Jimmy Johns frequently as well since I've places orders for them on this computer.

    Uh oh, you better check the credit card that you use to order Jimmy Johns!

    I don't buy things on my phone and rarely use the browser (mostly for using mfp when the app is not working right) and I get the pizza ads too.

    I don't think it's based on only the things you buy. For instance, if you use Google, the ads are tailored to anything you search for, as well as anything you ever type in an email. Google knows EVERYTHING about you. It's a little (or a lot) creepy.

    Ah thanks for letting me know, this is the first I'm hearing of it. I monitor that card regularly, but I'll watch it better!

    I use Firefox and Chrome browsers, install AdBlock - no ads anywhere. :drinker:
