Did you actually have a need for those products before hearing about them?<p>I find myself very often in the situation were I hear&#x2F;learn about a new cool thing, and I want it absolutely right now (The last example was a colleague bringing an Oculus to work, I almost ordered one the spot)<p>However, I try to wait a bit before actually buying anything big (like one&#x2F;two weeks), and I find that most of the time I don&#x27;t actually need&#x2F;care about the product I was so hyped about.<p>This is one of the part that annoy me the most about advertising, especially if it is well targeted : It creates a new need and offers (sells) its solution, more than it helps me to fulfill a real need.
