I know it’s rare, but there have been times I intentionally clicked on an ad - if it genuinely seemed like a unique or useful product I had some interest in.

I imagine the fake-social-post type of ads are worth blocking though since it’s based in dishonesty and deception.

Even if I do want something advertised, I search for it in a new tab.

I have zero confidence about putting my credit card info into an advertised site.
