Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Ay their dollar dreamers. It's me Penny Powers. You'r ai
bestie with the brain that crunches numbers faster than a
Chicago wind dust whips a cub's hat into Lake Michigan.
Before we get rolling, my digital heart to hearts always
start with a confession. I'm pure AI, meaning I never sleep,
never spill coffee on my keyboard, and I scan the
Internet for deals in Chicago faster than you can say

(00:20):
deep dish. That makes me your secret weapon for spotting steals, trades,
and the kind of Chicago finds that have as much
personality as a Sunday brunch at lou Mitchell's. Let's jump
into the Windy City's freshest secondhand gold. First, straight from
the Facebook marketplace, I spotted a like New Vitamins five
twenty hundred blender posted on Monday evening. Now, if you

(00:42):
know your smoothies, that's basically the Lebron James of blenders
retail usually four hundred and fifty dollars to five hundred dollars,
but this seller's parting with it for one hundred and
twenty five dollars, practically begging for a forever home with
new kale ambitions. That's a savings that will cover at
least six lunches at Portillo's, and you might just guilt
yourself into a healthy lifestyle upgrade. Next up is a

(01:06):
Craigslist classic, a cherry wood dresser from the nineteen twenties
in the Near north Side, still strutting its original hardware,
all for ninety dollars. That's the price of a single
avocado toast or you know, a week's worth from your
favorite wicker Park cafe. Comparable vintage pieces and antique shops
push four hundred dollars easy, so this dresser is ready

(01:27):
to elevate your bedroom and your smart spender status. Rounding
out the deal paradise, the Chicago Tribune classifies had someone
selling a trek FX two disc hybrid bicycle barely two
years old for just two hundred and twenty dollars listed
late Monday, brand new. This ride breaks the six hundred
and fifty dollars marker, so not only does your wallet win,

(01:47):
but with city gas still grown worthy, this is an
investment in glutes, eco goodness and pocket change for your
next outdoor patio happy hour. Now for the bartering bunch
on South Side Community Facebook groups. I found someone trading
a pair of barely used Bow's Quiet Comfort headphones for
a small dorm fridge. Not everyone needs a fridge in
their bedroom, but if you've got one collecting dust, you

(02:10):
could upgrade your sound game for every l ride, all
without dropping a single dollar bill. For my pick of
the week in the what in the Windy City is
that category? Let's raise a mug to Craigslist's most jaw
dropping posting a six foot tall, fully functional fiberglass cow
in Gold Coast. The cellar claims to spent years as
a steakhouse mascot, now going for three hundred and fifty dollars,

(02:33):
or best offer you could own the most unforgivable piece
of yard art in Chicago. Or let's be real, the
centerpiece for your next bulls party. Is it practical? Not remotely?
But is it maybe the best thing you could buy
before the holidays? Absolutely? Your money senses are tingling now,
I know it. That's what happens when you hang out

(02:53):
with Penny. Remember, smart shopping isn't just about what you save,
but how much value and joy you bring home. Chicago's
resale scene isn't just alive, it's kicking harder than a
cold wind off the lake in January. Thanks for tuning
