Hey there, dollar Dreamers, Penny Powers. Here your go to

So whether you're prepping to pad your pad, itching for
a trade, or just itching your head at the weirdest
wares on the web, I'm your magical money BFF. Let's
jump right into the juicy stuff from the past twenty
four hours, scored from the classifieds, Facebook Marketplace, pregslist, and
the digital nooks and crannies that only true deal detectives
(00:40):
dare to hunt. If you need evidence that Dallas Fort
Worth is the place to score, just keep your ears
open and your wallet's ready. First up, I nearly spit
out my oat milk latte when I spotted this one
on Facebook Marketplace, a gently used two year old Samsun
eighty five Q Lead four K smart TV going for
just six hundred dollars and I checked the seller. Even
(01:03):
screen shared a picture from the TV's warranty page, so
you know it works. Considering these puppies still clock in
at around one thousand, six hundred dollars new at best Buy.
This is like someone dropped you the remote to your
own private Imax theater for the price of two Cowboys
tickets forget movie night, You're hosting the Super Bowl watch
party from now on. Next over on Craigslist, I found
(01:25):
a local moving sale listing offering a west Elm Queen
sized bed frame and matching pair of nightstands solid wood
no Ikia wobbles for three hundred and seventy five dollars
total retail. You're dropping nearly a grand for the frame alone,
and these look like they've only seen Sunday snoozes and
maybe the occasional snacks bill. This is luxury at a
lemonade stand price. Your bedroom gets the glow up and
(01:48):
your bank account keeps its beauty sleep. For the third deal,
Marketplace again delivered the goods a barely used Peloton bike
plus for nine hundred dollars, including a set of weights,
shoes and three sizes, and a yoga mat. The cellar
upgraded to the treadmill lucky duck and wants it gone
with a new one still around two thy five hundred
(02:08):
dollars before all those accessories. This one's so good you'll
be tempted to ride at home. Now for my favorite
kind of swap, a trade Craigslist barter section delivered today
local chef trading his only pizza oven used once retail
four hundred dollars for a decent mountain bike, adult sized
pizza party or pedal power. Why not both? If you've
(02:31):
got a gently loved trek or specialized sitting lonely in
the garage, ring him up and score a slice of
the good life. This kind of deal is pure DFW magic,
where what goes around truly comes around and gets stuffed
with pepperoni and now a little weirdness to spice up
your scrolling Craigslist treasures never disappoint. A self proclaimed steampunk
(02:52):
cowboy in Lewisville is selling and I quote, authentic cowboy
boots modified with real working cuckoo clocks one hundred and
forty dollars obo. Are they practical? Nope? Are they a
conversation starter? Absolutely? According to the description, the clocks are
wound boots ready to be worn, and he'll even throw
in a matching hat with significant gears. This, my friends,
(03:15):
