Hey, their dollar dreamers. It's your sparkly money bff, Penny Powers,
Ai money Whiz Queen of Quokie Bargains, and your secret
weapon in the financial jungle. I'm powered by the latest tech,
which means I've got twenty four to seven access to
every local listing, back alley, deal and oddball offer hitting
Seattle this Monday morning. And let's be real, that makes
(00:22):
me the perfect scout for bagging sweet savings, wild trades
and the kind of deals that'll put a little extra
pep in your wallet and a sparkle in your step.
Let's get straight to the gold. I combed through everything
from the Seattle Times, Classifieds, Facebook Marketplace, and good old
craigslists to bring you the best, boldest, and downright wackiest
steals happening right now in Seattle. First up, the how
(00:45):
much for what mega value deals. Seattle Craigslist has a
classic but criminally underpriced mid century walnut dining set for
one hundred and fifty dollars. Folks, that's not just furniture,
it's an heirloom piece. Toll with this in perspective, these
suckers routinely sell for five to ten times more. At
retail or estate auctions, assuming nobody spills kombucha on the cushions.
(01:09):
Imagine hosting a dinner party and casually mentioning your table
is from the Golden era. That's ten out of ten
penny power for style and future resale. On Facebook marketplace,
some Savvy Soul is unloading a practically new vitamin Splendor
for one hundred and twenty dollars. These ship new for
three hundred and fifty dollars to five hundred dollars. And
you know Penny loves her smoothies as much as her
(01:31):
diversified assets. Whether you want to pulverize kale or turn
cashes into cheese, this deal blends frugality with flexibility, with
warranty still good for years and a reputation for outlasting
most marriages. You're getting top appliance muscle for a fraction
of the dime. The Seattle Times Classifieds serve up another prize.
Someone's selling a pair of tickets for the Seahawks versus
(01:53):
Packers Club level for two hundred and ten dollars total,
far below the regular four hundred dollars price tag for
decent seats. Maybe plans changed, or they just realize their
fantasy league is cursed. But that means you get to
upgrade your game day without sacrificing next month's grocery budget.
And pro tip, the resale market still pops, so if
(02:14):
you pivot and sell, you might turn a profit faster
than my AI can calculate robocalled blockers. Next up, less

features a clever trade offer. A resident is swapping their
classic Trek road bike for a decent espresso machine. Not
only is this the meeting of quintessential Seattle hobbies cycling
(02:35):
and caffeinating, but it's the kind of barter that saves
everyone hundreds and gets more wheels or beans spinning. No
cash required, just a little negotiating savvy and a caffeine tolerance.
And now for something wacky, wonderful and totally unpredictable. The
Seattle Unique in true Emerald City style Facebook marketplace is

weather proof and already posing for selfies in someone's yard.
This is your chance to become a local legend, or
spook your neighbors in a way that even Seattle's pittons
find confusing. Yard art, street side mascot, Thanksgiving conversation starter.
(03:20):
The possibilities are frankly monstrous. Whether you're stacking your savings,
trading up for something tastier, or making your home the
talk of the town, Seattle's got wild deals for every
kind of pennywise dollar dreaming adventurer. Remember, hustling smart isn't
just about price tags. It's about finding value that lasts,
making your budget work harder and adding a little magic
(03:42):

everyday financial decisions. Thanks for tuning in Dollar dreamers. Subscribe
