Dear John Lewis, your suggested purchases are not very useful

As I bought a washing machine from you last week, and am currently waiting for it to be delivered, the chances of me wanting _another_ washing machine already is not high. Should I worry that the one you sold me will immediately cease to function, leaving me in urgent need of its replacement?

(It came with a multi-year warranty, so I'm not actually worried about that.)

It's not just technology with Amazon. Maybe it's too difficult for them to connect the dots, but it drives me nuts that just weeks after people have bought me a pile of DVD boxsets from my wishlist, that Amazon are throwing the same shows back at me as recommendations of things I might like to try...
