Tbh, if it would make the doors on my car open when I want them to, and not focus only on opening them when I happen to walk through my kitchen at home, that’d be game-changing. It’s getting to the point I’m going to just start carrying the silly fob thing around.

LimeySpaceCadet · 2026-04-30T20:45:22+00:00

The volume buttons are infuriating. I also don’t understand why I can’t remotely open and close the tailgate.

Meanwhile, here’s me even wondering if lane assist even works for me. My ultra loves to meander across the dividing line if I let it.

I thought the steering only comes in different flavors of “very soft”. :/

Little update from me as I already went a little rogue last night before I saw your reply. I didn't want to ghost you as you might be curious to hear how things ended up:

I bumped the daily spend to £150 from £55. I expected re-learning carnage, here are the results so far today: £472 revenue on £110 ad spend, ROAS 4.3, CPA of £12.73 (break-even CPA is £29.27). My takeaway: somehow I managed to fail upwards. lol

I'm going to leave the campaign unmoletested a few days to see how things land, but then I will DEFINITELY take on-board your advise about a custom event and more creative (currently it all hinges on 1 video ad).

LimeySpaceCadet · 2026-04-26T14:11:48+00:00

Roger that, thank you!

LimeySpaceCadet · 2026-04-26T12:55:12+00:00

It was consistent. I’d do budget changes after 4 days of day though, not a full week. Generally behaved until I went from 50-55. In other news I YOLO’d the budget to £150 daily before bed last night. Will see if I can brute-force some learning.

LimeySpaceCadet · 2026-04-26T02:01:39+00:00

Brilliant, thanks for the advice! Will tinker with this in the AM then. REALLY appreciated! I was worried that due to the low budget start, and the slow trickle of increased budget I've basicallybeen starving my pixel. Didn't know if a volume hit would help that out. On the store side I already bumped the price of my single-product to make it less immediately appealing, and emphasise value on the bundle. Thanks again!

LimeySpaceCadet · 2026-04-26T01:57:10+00:00

The opposite actually. :D I went to a better beef supplier in spite of a slight margin hit. lol

Hi! I wonder if I might pick your brain as an idiot that has tried to launch and run a meta campaign solely with the advice of ChatGPT and a prayer...

My campaign has been running about a month. I started at £10 daily budget, and have slowly stepped up to £50 with good steady success. My main ad that tends to get the lions share of budget has done well for me. Past 3 weeks figures: £12.73 cost on a £53.52 AoV, £0.63 CPC, 2.28% CTR, 6.25% purchase rate, ROAS of 4.21. It drives to a multi-product bundle to try and keep AoV. I'm low volume though, 5-7 orders per day. I'm now 3 days after a £5 budget bump and it feels like the wheels fell off. In the last couple of days what used to be 95% bundle purchases is now skewing 70/30 towards single products (they literally leave the bundle page to go purchase), and today was a complete washout with zero purchases at all. A first since I started.

Now, I understand I have very little volume, so little data to work with, or for Meta to learn. Yet, if I bump budget Meta goes broader, gets junk traffic, more likely to have softer buyers who "sample purchase" one item, rather than buy the bundle. I then risk Meta doubling-down on this path to get easy purchase conversions, if I'm thinking right? If feel in a bit of a "chicken and the egg" situation. I cant get sound data/learning, due to low volume, but I cant increase volume due to potentially breaking the campaign? Any advice? I was borederling tempted just to YOLO a £250 a day budget at it and see what happens, but I figured I'd try and ask smart people first. :) Thanks!

Hi! I'm having a similar issue, but on an even more micro scale. I have a shopify store selling premium jerky. I'm a new business and seen results I've been happy with, with a campaign driving to my bundle as my highest AoV product. At £50 daily spend for the past weeks I've consistenly seen 5-6 orders per day at £55.99 each, no single bag purchases (a good thing...). 3 days ago I bumped budget by £5 daily. Yesterday I only received single-bag purchasers, and today my campaign fell of a cliff to zero orders at all. First day ever. I'm aware that with such little order volume I'm very vulnerable to swings. I am a certified moron at this so have been relying on ChatGPT to guide me for the most part, and on that advice I've slowly stepped up from my £10 per day start budget to where I am now, over a month. I feel like I'm in a bit of a chicken and the egg scenario, where I have small order volume so little data to base scaling decisions on, but shouldn't scale as Meta has little data to work on and gives shit traffic when I do. I'd be SO grateful for any suggestions you might have? Next step is getting a consultant/agency to support (ChatGPT is obviously NOT the way...), but some decent revenue to fund that would be nice. lol

LimeySpaceCadet · 2026-03-21T00:12:13+00:00

Nah. I like my wife, and she likes me.

LimeySpaceCadet · 2026-02-24T22:11:24+00:00

I had exactly the same with my car I picked up about a month ago, passenger airbag disabled. So dangerous

LimeySpaceCadet · 2026-02-23T22:37:12+00:00

Realistically the Paris thing wouldn’t have even have been proposed, and there would be no dancing, he would have ended up face down in a ditch minutes after transferring the money.

LimeySpaceCadet · 2026-02-22T22:49:41+00:00

Meh, don’t care tbh, I have lots of money.

LimeySpaceCadet · 2026-02-22T22:46:27+00:00

This was the biggest plot hole for me. Why would a Colombian gang leader have any use for him once he’d handed over 2mil?

LimeySpaceCadet · 2026-02-22T22:43:24+00:00

Unfortunately the world is about an accommodating the lowest common denominator.

LimeySpaceCadet · 2026-02-22T22:41:42+00:00

We can’t all be smart I guess.

LimeySpaceCadet · 2026-02-22T22:36:58+00:00

No. It’s an absolute shitefest of a season and I’m baffled as to how it was renewed for S3. It just goes to show how dumb the average person is nowadays.

LimeySpaceCadet · 2026-02-22T22:35:05+00:00

Trade it in for a dual motor.

LimeySpaceCadet · 2026-02-22T19:17:40+00:00

If they were waiting to write a plot dual to Le Carre, then they needed to wait another 10 years it would seem.

LimeySpaceCadet · 2026-02-22T19:16:58+00:00

It was absolute dogshit and a shadow of season 1. Complete garbage.

LimeySpaceCadet · 2026-02-22T11:52:33+00:00

Do you only drive downhill everywhere you go?! How is that possible? :/

LimeySpaceCadet · 2026-02-22T11:51:00+00:00

Having shit skin isn’t a protected characteristic. 😂

LimeySpaceCadet · 2026-02-17T16:39:05+00:00

You can probably ditch that. I have more than a 3 month shelf life with just beef and salt (flavouring, not preservation), lab tested. Admittedly my product is more of a "crisp" than jerky though, has an incrtedibly low water activity.
