"Just saw an ad for one of your products by almighty Mars on Facebook! The voodoo doll incense burner. Took a screenshot if you need it. You can ask Facebook to remove the ad for copyright violation."

Of course when we got back to the show booths were going up early and a huge trailer was in the middle of my booth space so we had to wait till they were unloaded. My spot… Continue
