Tested this a while back, had me and my gf talk about kids like where going to have one and all that but never got any baby products before and never typed or asked any electronics about anything related to it.
Within like a few days we started getting ads for babies and expecting parents.
It's solid proof there always hearing us.
I know people say they there are studies, etc, but I agree with you. My husband and I both don't like Taco Bell. There were zero searches for it, we never talked about it, etc. So we decided to test it. We started saying Taco Bell multiple times in different sentences.
Guess what suggested options popped up when we hit "T" into google or maps? Yup. Taco Bell
I just press 'T' into google maps and Taco Bell is on there. I haven't been there in years nor can I recall even talking about it in a very long time.
All right, fair. Maybe Taco Bell wasn't the best test. I'll keep that in mind for the next time
