As ubiquitous as online-advertising is, it’s really hard to ignore. I constantly find myself drawn to searching for items that I never would have thought I needed or even wanted. The marketing magic that these advertisements employ draws in even the most stubborn of online shoppers. Whenever one of these lauded products is displayed that sparks some interest in me, I go to Amazon and do a quick price check. If it’s feasible, I add it to my Amazon Wish List.

Although I rarely ever buy anything from Amazon, it’s a good place to keep a list of the things I want. They sell practically everything. Well, except for that underground missile base I really want.
