Raise your hand if you can spend an afternoon looking through all the random and hilarious things listed on Craigslist. Or, if you've ever procrastinated something important while perusing through the Missed Connections page.

Craigslist is a beacon for those looking to get rid of their old stuff and some of it's pretty bizarre.

Editor's Choice: These Are The Cheapest Cities To Rent In If You're Done Being Broke In Toronto

You can sell pretty much anything on Craigslist — from a rusty old jar to a million-dollar mansion (both of which are currently listed on the site).

So, you can imagine all the hilarious items in between. Here are some of the best ones we were able to find.

Some McDonald's Happy Meal toys from 1996

Price: $60

Why You Need It: The ad states that these are "very rare" so many times we're starting to wonder if perhaps they're worth the $60.

A jar of matches

Price: $15

Why You Need It: This jar of matches is listed as reduced, meaning it was at one point listed for more than $15. It's advertised as perfect for camping, stoves, BBQs & smokers. You know... things that require fire.

Craigslist ad

A ton of knives

Price: unlisted

Why You Need It: The description reads, "Lots o' knives & other stuff," and there are indeed lots of knives. Funnily enough, there's also a rolling pin thrown in! 

Craigslist ad

A large bundle of sticks 

Price: $5

Why You Need It: Because why go gather a bundle of sticks yourself when you could pay $5 for them in Scarborough instead? The poster describes them as having "lovely tendrils." 

Craigslist ad

A bar of (unused) soap shaped like corn on the cob

Price: $10

Why You Need It: White bars of soap are so overdone. Instead, wash yourself off with this corn-style soap. It looks surprisingly realistic and is bound to last longer than a regular old bar!

Rusty old tin can

Price: $5.00

Why You Need It: Just look at this thing! That's more rust than you could ever need or want. And only five dollars?! Sign us up.

Craigslist ad

The scariest pig mask ever made 

Price: $29

Why You Need It: These masks look perfect for making sure those around you never sleep again! Sick of your quarantine housemates? Pull out the pig masks and they'll be running for the hills in no time.

Craigslist ad

A McDonald's Christmas decoration 

Price: $20

Why You Need It: Who doesn't want to envision Santa on a late night McDonald's run on Christmas Eve? This could be the perfect gift for the Big Mac lover on your shopping list.
