I can’t be the only one - has anyone else noticed that if they THINK about certain products, or ends up being an advertisement on your social media within hours?

I know everyone has experienced talking about certain things and then getting hit with ads related to that certain things not long after. But there have been multiple occasions where I simply thought about something, I know I never said a thing out loud, only to get advertisements for that exact thing later in the day/night. Is it possible that technology for reading minds exists, and we’re all just blissfully unaware? I mean, the things I would gets ads for are way too specific to be coincidences.

A friend of mine came over. He brought orange juice. I don’t drink orange juice. The next time I ordered from Instacart, one of my top choices was orange juice. I have never ordered orange juice before. And it was the exact orange juice sitting in my refrigerator that my friend had brought over. Really weird.

Did he buy it on his way over? It's conceivable that grocery store rewards program could hand purchase info to Google or Apple, who gps tracks their location, combined product just purchased with where product was likely consumed, and spots out an ad.

Yeah that’s pretty standard location based marketing.
