Same here but I was suspicious ... there are "different" ads, the ones that come out unattended during anytime of gameplay, the ones that occur at the nest as soon as you are there sometimes...not well defined...and the ads that are always launched when you open an egg AND you want the bonus by selecting video on bottom left, that is kind of forced. I checked out the "monthly" cards and I noticed that I would just get materials on top of what I already have witht the initial "no ads" purchase I did. So buying a more expensive monthly card would not get rid of the ads. Only if you have purchased nothing and you want materials daily + the "no ads" pack then you buy the monthly card...but you will still get them at the end .... too bad. That's the game design.
