Every once in a while, for a chuckle, we’ll give the social media “buy-and-sell” a good old scroll through. Typically, we’ll see a lot of cars for sale, kitchen appliances, baby clothes and collectables. Other times, we’ll see the indescribable. Today we figured we’d share the underbelly of good old Craigslist Toronto. Here are the weirdest things for sale or wanted by people on Toronto’s social media marketplaces. You’re welcome, but also, sorry.
Here are 6 of the weirdest things listed on Craigslist Toronto right now.
MANNEQUIN HEADS WITH HUMAN HAIR
This one gets an A+ on the creepy scale. We could understand maybe selling mannequin heads for wig owners. But these ones come with hair? Human hair no less. We’ll be steering clear of this seller.
Cost: $10-$35 each
EMPTY ESSENTIAL OIL BOTTLES
We know, we know, essential oils are super in right now. Everyone’s trying them. But if you’re more interested in the packaging they come in, this ad is for you! Right now you can get your very own bottles that essential oils came in once upon a time. Of course, the oils are not included and were likely used by the person selling this item. We’ll let you think on that for a minute. At least they’re free though, right??
Cost: Free
CARDBOARD BOXES ADVERTISED AS LEGO STORAGE
So this ad is actually someone claiming to be giving away Lego storage. That’s cool. Maybe you have a little one at home who’s always leaving their Legos out and you’re just so sick of stepping on them. But wait, when you look a little further you’ll find that it is, in fact, actually just a collection of cardboard boxes. Yup. Just some boxes.
Cost: Free
VINTAGE STRAW TRIVETS WOVEN WICKER HOT PADS
Protect your table with these vintage straw trivets woven wicker hot pads. Whew, that was a mouthful. If the length of the name doesn’t sell you, maybe the $5 price tag will!
Cost: $5
DALLAS COWBOYS INFLATABLE HELMET
Alright, if you’re a huge Dallas Cowboys fan MAYBE you’d be interested in this one. It’s a Dallas Cowboys helmet. But there’s a catch. It’s inflatable. So, really, it’s a Dallas Cowboys ballon shaped like a helmet. We do not recommend using this in place of an actual helmet. Safety first, people!
Cost: $25
A SHRUB
Yup. It’s just a shrub.
Cost: $13
So get your credit card and make some buys! Or log out of Craigslist and take a look in the mirror at what you’ve become. That’s what we’ll be doing.
