Staples website with Google Ads?

[t3359]

What the heck is happening? I just went to the Staples website and they have Google ads on them now... and the ads are even for their competitors!

It's been a while. I remember a thread about this a few months ago. Definitely weird.

I find it hard to believe that the ads generate more revenue than a potential sale would generate. I wonder if some rogue webmaster put them on the site.

yeah, that's what I thought - I was thinking my computer was infect or something but then it gave the same thing from my iPod.

weird - wonder what genius within Stooples decided that this would be in their best interest.

They're probably too busy hiding stock to notice?

Well that makes it easy to price match and shop all on one website!
