What does una cosa de nada mean?

ExpressionColoquial

a tiny thing — nothing at all

Something insignificant that should not take any effort. Almost always said by somebody who has been trying to sort it out for months, and the irony is exactly that.

Es una cosa de nada, cinco minutos.
It is never five minutes.
