I find this hard to believe as well. There is very little information given and it seems more likely they accidentally shopped at two different targets. I’ve heard the same claim about plane tickets, also mentioned in the article, and have never experienced it as well. Though there is a lot more evidence to back that claim up.

My comparisons have been between my work laptop and my personal computer. Two completely different machines, different IP addresses and vastly different habits on those machines. I never even log into my accounts on my work machine.
