Yes but only since someone else bought it to my attention medusa.  Now I am seeing it all the time and it annoys me no end.

It seems a bit silly doesn't it?
May all dairy items in your fridge be of questionable vintage.

It seems you only get it using regular search engine not Tapatalk, it is annoying though! I guess they are just wasting their time with that type of ad as no one from here is going to click on it........or maybe they are out of curiosity......no don't think so!!!!

Since I've noticed that ad it seems to be occuring more and more and in the bigger spaces. I used to get mainly insurance ads and things like that :P Who decides which ads get displayed?

Its a very misleading add too. It should read don't buy a Vita-mix because the product they are pushing is essentially a cheaper version of that.

Yes I find them annoying especially when I'm on my iphone and I accidentally press on it when I am trying to change pages - grrrr >:(
You can't buy happiness, but you can buy cupcakes - and that's kind of the same thing :)

It does seem to be popping up everywhere now that it's been pointed out - if only we could click on it and make it go away  ;D
