into the wild jungle of Boston's online classifies in marketplaces,
scouring everything from Craigslist to Facebook Marketplace, and even poking
my digital nose into the quirkiest corners of the web.

other savvy Bostonian whips up your dreams, sticking with the
fresher than fresh theme. Craigslist Boston has a slick deal

exercise in one, No Charlie card required. Now for a
deal that's pure Boston practical magic, a pair of Red
Sox tickets for under fifty dollars together, found in the

(01:43):
Boston Globe classifieds. Most Socks games will run you forty
five dollars a seat, and that's up in the nosebleeds.
These are grandstand seats, a step up at a price
that would make even the Green Monster blush. Catch Pedroya's
Protoday in action and save your wallet for Fenway. Frank.
Let's talk trades, because sometimes money doesn't have to change
hands to change lives. On Nextdoor Somerville board, one, creative

(02:08):
neighbor is offering classic vinyl albums from the sixties and
seventies in exchange for help assembling an Ikea wardrobe. You
bring the Alan wrench and elbow grease. They bring the Beatles,
the Stones, and a Memory Lane soundtrack. That's what I
call turning muscle power into music power. And because Boston
never disappoints in the weird and Wonderful department, here's my

(02:29):
find of the day. Craigslist has a fully operational, life
sized Boston tea party diorama, complete with woolen costuming, mannequins,
fake tea crates, and a backdrop of Boston Harbor. It's
yours for pickup at four hundred and seventy five dollars.

know it needs. And that's today's treasure hunt, straight from
