Those ebay banners get me all the time! It can be something I have been looking for or something that just caught my eye in that moment - I'm always clicking through to ebay. As a matter of fact, I just got back from placing a bid on some Lush soap! Banners are something that I thought I had trained myself to ignore. They've been around forever and they are usually annoying. But, I've found that while I'm staring at my screen, contemplating a mylot discussion or my response to it, these ebay banners are really working on me! Have you clicked through at all? Have you actually increased your ebay shopping because of these banners? What's the business connection between ebay and mylot? Wouldn't it be dastardly if mylot was OWNED by ebay? All this talk is just a ploy to get us to shop ebay? Well, it's working on some of us! LOL

I have to admit I do the same thing from time to time if something catches my eye while i am answering a post or searching for one to answer. I stop and look also. It's good to know it's not just me.

It's definitely not just you, shaun! I don't even consider myself a "shopaholic" by any means but I must have place at least a half-dozen bids because of those ebay banners. Thank goodness I don't win them all!

Yeah, those stupid ebay banners get me all the time! Even if it's not something I like or want to buy, it reminds me to go to the website to look at my watched items and bid for things. I waste so much of my money that way! Dang it Mylot! haha
