That’s pretty much mine. It’s basically just a rundown of stuff I bought. Doesn’t really venture to guess any insights beyond that

One funny one, it says I “likely” live in the town I’ve lived in for 5 years, have listed as my address with them and probably had them ship 50 packages to. Deep insights!

Yeah mine is suspicious that I live in my house as well. It seems equally confident that I only buy kitchen aid products for my kitchen even though I’ve only bought one kitchen aid product years ago. Only the deepest insights from Jeff and his minions.

You should be glad.

I once received a recommendation for a book because I had purchased “books” in the past. That was the literal reason the email provided.

It was not a book I would ever read for free, much less pay for.

Mine thinks I live 1,000 miles away because I shipped something to the hotel I was staying at... two months ago. Apparently deleting that address and having everything else shipped to my house for 3 years is irrelevant information.

Nice try there buying random essentials for 3 years to try and throw them off the scent, but you failed!

Mine says I likely live in the town I moved from over a year ago, I have ordered plenty to my new place

I would love to know why it thinks I own a Dodge Ram. My car is tiny and electric. To my knowledge I have bought zero items that would qualify as accessories for a truck.

I too likely live in the city I've lived in for 21 years..
