I've seen on Pintrest you can do some amazing things with pallets, let's build pallet houses for the homeless.

Sears sold kit homes for the first third of the 20th. Wonder if any of those are still standing?

Lots of them still standing here in Bellingham.
There are a few in the Hazelmere part of Surrey, and a few in Richmond around Finn Slough as well.

"This product is a waste of time and money," says Andrew Bennett of the Florida-based Trekker Trailers, a leader in tiny home designing and building. "They are playing on the tiny house industry. It would be more cost-effective to start from scratch. This type of product is bad for the industry and misleading. It's not a dwelling. It's a shed, or an atrium, or a greenhouse."

Hey, some (not all) of those make nice she-sheds. And you don't have to wait for your lazy and/or busy spouse to make one happen in his free time, or wait for some contractor to do it way over-budget and months later. I wouldn't buy anything like that without seeing it in person, but there's a lotta one-clickers out there that'll take the chance.

there are a ton of prefab assemble yourself sheds on the market now, this is just a "new" delivery channel and a whole lot of free media marketing.
edit: As example it appears you can buy a similarly sized Sauna for $3k, delivered vs. $5k for the Amazon "tiny home" sauna. But then it amazes me how fucking lazy the "smart" amazon shoppers are when it comes to price comparisons.
