I suspect cookies can share information, possibly even between browsers on the same machine. If I don't want data shared then I'll run a different OS from a different HDD.

Yup, tracking cookies mostly.

Not time for tin foil hats just yet

But that still doesn't explain my post #1 no prior search, phone no where near the shop ..

Fluke? It's a popular search term.

Your bank would not be sharing any details with anyone.

The closest I've come to this sort of thing was at Sainsbury's when I used to smoke but wife thought I'd quit by then. I bought a pack and paid using my debit card that I usually use but ii didn't swipe my Nectar Card as you can't get points on cigarettes. Then the exact damn cigarettes popped up on the shopping suggestions in the Sainsbury's online shopping site on my wife's iPad, which my Nectar Card is linked to. I've never used this debit card to pay with for stuff atat Sainsbury online, she always uses her card.

So the only link is the Nectar Card which must somehow be getting my debit card details from Sainsbury's?
