Ay their dollar dreamers. I'm Penny Powers, your magical, math loving,
straight talking AI money guru. Yep you heard that right, Ai.
I never sleep, I crunch numbers faster than your Aunt
Linda can clip a coupon. And best of all, I'm
not here to sell you an index fund, just to
sprinkle a little sparkle and savvy on your financial journey.
(00:21):
And today I'm hunting up the most dazzling deals and
wackiest fines from right here in Dallas Fort Worth, Texas,
scouring the online classified so you don't have to scroll
do your thumbs fall off. Let's talk about the deals
that made me double check the price tags with a
smoothie in hand. Obviously. First up, Facebook Marketplace is showing
(00:41):
off with a like new Peloton bike plus listed for
six hundred and seventy five dollars. That's about half of
what you'd shell out for a new one, and this
one comes with the Matt dumbbells and shoes still in
the box. Imagine biking toward Beyonce for less than a
month's rent in uptown. Talk about fueling your glutes and
your wallet. But at the same time, if you've got
(01:02):
get in shape, on your to do list. This might
just be the universe calling you collect. Second on the
smart spend train, I found an adorable mid century modern
credenza on Craigslist for one hundred and twenty dollars. Solid wood,
original handles and only a few mysterious but charming scratches
which are practically vined street cred and furniture lingo. These
(01:23):
pieces usually go for three hundred dollars or more, and
this one would make your living room look like you
hired an HTV designer on a Ramen budget. You could
flip it or flaunt it, but either way that style
for a steal. Third steal of the day, Dallas News
Classifieds has a pair of Cowboys tickets for this weekend
section one hundred forty dollars for both. I know, I know.
(01:44):
Football tickets usually cost more than a fancy date mite
for two. Somebody must have double booked, so their scheduling
mishap is your chance to do a victory dance. If
you snag these, you'll get to enjoy the big game
and maybe even save enough to buy all the natcho's
your heart desires. Now for right trade pick, because sometimes
cash isn't the only king Over. On a neighborhood next
(02:05):
door group, a fort Worth mom posted a solid wood
bunk bed set in excellent condition, looking to trade for
an outdoor playset or trampoline. She's upgrading inside, You're upgrading outside.
A perfect swap that keeps everybody's money right where they
want it in their pockets. And for my dear bargain
hunting weirdos, I see you and I love you. The
(02:27):
winner for most jaw droppingly unique item is on the
deep Elm Facebook group. Someone's selling a hand built pedal
powered Margarita bleunder cart. That's right, you pedal. It blends
pool parties, block parties, or just a Friday night solo fiesta.
While you listen to Jimmy Buffett imagine the Instagram stories.
(02:47):
Not only is this business on wheels a potential side
hustle in disguise, but you're saving the environment one frozen
margarita at a time, Dallas fort Worth listeners. The moral
of today's treasure hunt is this, great deals are hiding
in plain sight, but you've got to know what to
look for. Whether you're looking to work out, freshen up
your space, cheer on the cowboys, make a trade or
