A plastic bag, a handful of rocks, and random scrap paper drawings are all among the items that people tried to sell on Craigslist and Facebook Marketplace. Welcome to the weird and wacky world of online buying and selling. You can buy and sell just about anything, anywhere, and these people have taken that as a personal challenge!

There are plenty of deals on Craigslist and Facebook Marketplace, but you have to be careful where you look. There seem to be quite a few sellers who overvalue their "gems," which look suspiciously like common everyday rocks. Then, there are the budding artists who may need to work on their technique a bit before charging the big bucks for their artistic visions.

Next, this guy caused quite a stir in the r/HomeDepot subreddit — he asked if dogs really need to be allowed into home improvement stores, or if they're just souring the experience for customers and employees alike.

Selling a drawing, or trying to hide what the shed looks like?

Probably a TikTok creator who discovered that their "craft hack" is a major eye sore

Sometimes you only get one hot sauce with your order and you need 72 more, so this seller has your back
