Amazon: The same 31 products you don't want, again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again
Does anyone else go looking on amazon because they used to have loads of stuff, but now there's just a few things over and over and over and they're not quite what you wanted. It's so full of promoted content and you keep thinking that somewhere on one of the pages there might be something new, but no, it's these same products again and again.
You're viewing a single thread.
The niche thing you just bought just two months ago and that no one would ever need two of in their life.
I mean I bought one toilet seat, clearly I need 16 more, they know us so well
That one drives me up the wall. It happened to me recently, but on something a bit more mainstream - a spanner set. No, I don't need another spanner set! Seriously, who buys more than one spanner set ever? Oh, and sometimes I search for an item, don't buy it, but then I'm offered great deals on similar products every time I log in for the rest of time.
I looked at ONE light switch because I couldn’t find exactly the type in other stores (single-gang dual 2-way multipole) and now they will NOT stop emailing me about electrical equipment and supplies as if i was a contractor
Exactly. Amazon are the pushiest of the dodgy pushy salesperson.
My weirdest Amazon experience was when I went to Lowe's and bought a drill bit and a pair of cabinet door hinges, and just looked at cabinet pulls for a minute or two - didn't buy any or even pick any up. That night, Amazon recommended for me drill bits, cabinet door hinges ... and cabinet pulls. I'm assuming that I got linked to in-store footage from Lowe's, which is creepy but certainly not suprising.
Your phone's Wi-Fi told them exactly where in the store you were. That's how they knew what you were looking at.
Is Lowe's like a physical amazon store?
They're not in any way associated with Amazon, as far as I know. But apparently they sell their customer data to them - and immediately.
That is pretty scummy.
