I very seldom buy anything on the internet, but I “shop” and compare prices for specific items sometimes. An advertisement drew my eye for retro-styled shoes; as a “shoe” person, I browsed through their on-line stock. When I wanted to look for a red handbag locally, I again “shopped” on line to see what was available. After looking for both items, I immediately received email from Amazon advertising shoes and handbags. How far do the tentacles of Amazon reach? I think I resent the fact that my information had been shared with Amazon. Thank heaven I wasn’t shopping for anything for I wouldn’t discuss in this forum.
Amazon, stay out of my business! If I wanted to buy shoes and handbags from you, I would have checked out your site. I didn’t, so butt out! Incidentally, I will not buy shoes, not matter how cute they are, from the site I was browsing because apparently they share my information without my permission.
Grouse, grouse, grouse! Grumble, grumble, grumble!

It was probably your PC that shared the information not the website. You probably have spyware or adware on your PC that tracks the info.
I don't like the ads that always say someone rich/thin/balding is from my neighborhood who discovered a miracle cure. I think I would have read about them in our local news if that was true.
LOL!!
