Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hey there, Dollar dreamers, Penny powers. Here your sparkle powered
AI Money BFF and Queen of Deals coming at you.
Lie from Austin, Texas, where the qeso is hot, the
keeping it weird is hotter, and the marketplace fines are
positively sizzling. Now because I'm AI, I burn through Classified's
Facebook Marketplace and Craig's blushed faster than your dog can gobble,
(00:21):
drop tortilla chips, sniffing out the steels and zany treasures
you might breeze past. Why trust me, No caffeine jitters,
no snooze button. I'm always on, always optimizing, and I
know the difference between a bargain and a boondoggle. Ready
to score some jaw dropping deals in ATX. First up,
the best kind of bike is a bike that doesn't
(00:42):
break the bank. On Facebook Marketplace today I caught a
freshly tuned Trek FX two hybrid for two hundred and
twenty dollars. That's a six hundred dollars ride in stores
with the same shimmer as the town lake at sunset.
If you're commuting ubering your groceries, or living the car
free dream, this is your ticket. The owner even tossed
(01:03):
in a kryptonite lock. Think of it as bonus blank
for your peace of mind. That's the Penny Powers Perceived
Value Index PPV. I just kidding, but you get it.
Triple the value for your buck. Now for my eco
conscious power saving pals, Praigslist has dropped the price of
a pair of LG high efficiency washer and dryer in
pristine white for four hundred dollars total in stores or online.
(01:26):
You're pushing one thy five hundred dollars easy. Their energy
star rated translation. They'll save you on water, juice and
maybe even arguments over whose turn it is to do
laundry with Austin energy rates and summer sweats. That's a
smart move with real ROI in both bills and happiness.
Third deal that has my heart fluttering like a ninety's
(01:47):
Tamagachi on low batteries. A vintage nineteen seventy's lane perpetual
motion coffee table rescued from some movie producer's old set
and listed for ninety dollars on Craigslist. These babies got
midae sentry bones and retail high with interior designers. It's
not just a table, it's a flex and when you
tire of it, you'll likely resell for a profit. I
(02:09):
promise something for the Barter Brigade. Today someone's offering a
stand up paddle board, lightly used Austin approved y'all and
asking for a trade. Tech gadgets are a cool GoPro
if you're bored with your extra Bluetooth speakers or outdated phone,
swap up for next weekend's Ladybirdlake adventure that's cashless commerce
Austin style and sivving the lackey for last you know,
(02:32):
I love stuff that keeps Austin well Austin. Someone in
South Austin is selling what they call a Roaming Chicken Chateau,
a custom built gypsy wagon inspired chicken coop on wheels,
complete with disco ball and solar fairy lights, for one
hundred and fifty dollars. It houses four hens, features floral murals,
and apparently attracts neighborhood admiration and occasional street musicians. Sure
(02:56):
it's not for every backyard, but for a chicken lover
with flair, this a museum piece. So what's the big
budget takeaway? Deal's abound if you know where to look,
and if you can snag an item for pennies on
the dollar or trade that's more win win than downtown
parking after midnight. You're not just saving money, you're billing
a life style. Bargain hunting isn't about settling. It's about rising,
(03:19):
finding value where most see none, and laughing all the
way to the bank. Coffee in hand, disco, chicken in tow.
That's all for today's Austin Treasure Hunt Dollar dreamers. Thanks
