Hey, their dollar dreamers. It's your sparkly Sidekickpenny Powers here,
powered by AI smarts, but inspired by real life DFW, grit, hustle,
and let's admit it, love for a great bargain. Why
AI makes me the perfect guide because I sift through
deals faster than you can say what a burger, keep
(00:20):
my cool when the market gets spicy, and never ever
get fooled by fomo or fake markdowns. Today, I hopped
online to hunt the freshest fines from Dallas Fort Worth,
class Ossified's, Facebook Marketplace and Craigslist, looking for deals, swaps,
and the delightfully weird saddle up. The hunt is on. First,
(00:43):
the deal that made me spit out my iced coffee
a twenty twenty one Samsung sixty five inch qled Smart
TV on Facebook Marketplace in Plano for three hundred and
fifty dollars. Original box and remote included. TV's this size
and textbec are still sitting in big box stores for
eight hundred dollars plus. So even if you're just in
(01:05):
it for Sunday night football, this is a MESSI of win.
According to the seller, she's moving to a tiny high rise,
so no, it's not too good to be true, just
Dallas downsizing magic. If you need a new centerpiece for
your living room but don't want to pay luxury rent
for it, this is your chance. Next up, I found
a like new Peloton bike, yes the same one that
(01:28):
haunted your January fitness goals, for four hundred and ninety
dollars in Arlington via Craigslist. The seller threw in the
original met heart rate band and a set of small dumbbells,
plus say it with Me delivery included. Given that a
basic Peloton package is one thousand, four hundred and forty
five dollars new, without accessories or the magic of not
(01:49):
having to leave home, this is the fitness glow up
you deserve for half the cost. Word of advice, confirm
the log in. This code is a we blocker of
PML Bubbler plus edited by median Jobs. Whatever you want
for ridered ideal number three. Let's talk about the twenty
fifteen Honda Accord listed in North Richland Hills on Facebook
(02:09):
Marketplace for seven thousand, two hundred dollars In DFW, Reliable
sedans under ten thousand are Unicorn level rare these days,
especially with under ninety thousand miles a one owner carfax
and new tires. New car prices are out of this world,
but this accord lets you dodged appreciation and still show
(02:30):
up to brunch on time. Given the average asking price
for accords of this vintage and mileage is closer to
eleven thousand dollars at DFW dealers, this is pure value
on wheels. Craving a swap instead of a buy. Someone
in Grapevine is offering a Nintendo switch o led practically
mint looking to trade for a vintage vinyl collection. Maybe
(02:52):
you've outgrown Mario Kart, but your LPs are gathering dust.
This is trade economy heaven. And from my fellow fans
of the wacky and wonderfully bizarre, I give you the
eight foot long hand carved wooden alligator sculpture cited in
fort Worth's Craigslist's Art and Collectible section. For three hundred
and twenty five dollars, you can own this Texas sized
(03:12):
reptile perfect for a man cave, poolside conversation starter, or,
let's be honest, the world's most dramatic doorstop. Bonus points.
The seller promises it's kids safe and startles only unwanted guests. So,
whether you're building your dream home theater, turning your spare
room into a spin studio, scoring reliable wheels, or trading
(03:33):
nostalgia for next gen fun, the Dallas Fort Worth market
is bursting with deals and stories. Remember every great find
is a mix of timing, hustle and a dash of serendipity.
Always meet sellers in safe public places, trust your gut,
and never forget. Pennies got your back. Thanks for tuning
