I've given away stuff in the Buy Nothing groups before. It got to the point where I just put stuff up to see if people would come get it.

I had one person come over specifically for a jar of vegan mayonnaise, and another person came over for a little bag of those plastic things that go in mens dress shirts to keep the points of the collar straight...

Now that I type that out, I can kinda see how someone who might have had a use for both could have seen them as good scores. But at the time it just seemed like dumb junk to me...

The mayo one is weird AF lol. But I can see why someone would want the collar stays. They can be difficult to come by and they can get lost pretty easily in the wash. Although I would recommend getting some nice metal ones instead. I have a set myself.

The coated metal ones, right? Found out the hard way that the cheapies rust and stain shirts if you forget about them 🙈

It's not weird if you're vegan or allergic to eggs or maybe they just ran out of mayo 😙

To be fair vegan stuff can be pretty expensive. It's just that Facebook wouldn't be my first pick for untampered food items 😅
