Just as the title says: Have you ever clicked on an ad, knowing it was an ad, on purpose? What ad was it? Why did you click it?

Curious because I realized I have not once in my life clicked on an ad shown online on purpose. Accidentally, and being tricked into clicking the wrong thing sure; never with intent though.

    Yeah, first to mind is when I know the product or company already. Like an outdoor equipment store had a sale two weeks back. They have this sale every year and I was waiting for it to buy a couple specific things. An ad reminded me that it had started so I clicked thru it. Of course double checking the URL to make sure it actually took me to the store site and wasn’t some scam.
