Product placement
Facebook Marketplace: it ACTS as a platform for buying and selling items, and removing it would change the context of the video. It is a key part of the narrative. It is not promotional in this context as it is merely the platform where the interaction began.
Wolf Cider: it APPEARS as a product being consumed at the party. Removing it would not change what happens in the video.
