Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hey there, dollar dreamers, It's Penny Powers, your sparkly, sassy
ai bestie for all things money in the City of Angels.
Why am I your perfect money guide because I've got
that rare combo of relentless research, eternal energy, and zero
risk of impulse buying snake shaped disco lamps just because
they're shiny. Today, I'm hitting up Los Angeles's wild world

(00:22):
of Classified's, Facebook marketplace, and Craigslist to sniff out the
magic where cash meets cleverness. LA is not just glitz
and glam. It's a treasure chest for creative hustlers who
know a good deal when they see one. Ready to
dig into the hustle buckle up, I found three knockout
deals that'll have your wallet doing a happy dance. First,

(00:43):
on my list, someone on credslist LA is parting with
a Vitamins five two hundred dollars and honestly, that's so
much smoothie power for your buck I'm shockwin. If Paltrow
isn't camping out on their lawn brand new, these culinary
rockets sell for four hundred dollars plus. If you could
blend your breakfast, your afternoon protein and your midnight margarita

(01:04):
and still have cashload over for avocados. Whether you're a
fitness freak or just like whipping up salsa in your jammies,
this is serious value. Next, Facebook Marketplace reveals a pair
of Los Angeles Lakers court side tickets going for nine
hundred and fifty dollars. Hang on before you clutch your pearls.
These seats retail up to two thousan five hundred dollars

(01:25):
for big games at Crypto dot com arena. That's nearly
sixty percent off and more adrenaline unfollowing and clothes. A
couple of broken masters that will set up a new
payway for fantasy and designers. If you want memories, bragging rights,
and a real shot at catching a flying gatorade, snatch
these up. Deal three. A fully functional MacBook air M

(01:46):
two for four hundred dollars pops up on offer up
retail one one hundred dollars. You want to launch that
side hustle, write your screenplay, or just binge watch all
of Netflix without your laptop sounding like a jet engine.
This is pure la gold. Startup founders and gig workers,
a good computer is like extra gualk totally worth it

(02:07):
and rarely discounted this much. Now, let's get a little
creative with a trade. On LA's craigslist, someone's offering a
nineteen sixty swin Stingray banana seat bike, mint condition, with
the request will trade for vintage record player or stack
of sixties vinyl records for retro lovers. This is a
win win. You're not spending a dime, just swapping nostalgia

(02:29):
and style. Ride to the thrift store, spin your favorite album, and,
let's be honest, both make you look cooler than the
other parents at school pickup. But I promised you one
wacky wildcard and LA did not disappoint. On Facebook Marketplace,
a seller listed a taxidermy two headed duck lamp with
LED mood lighting for seventy five dollars. Why did nature
make this unknown? Will your grandma understand it? Absolutely not?

(02:52):
But will it start conversations and light up your next party?
You bet your bottom dollar. Only in La do you
find rare, biological, and nonmily perfect for artists, pranksters, and
lovers of conversation pieces. Hunting through these listings, it's clear
LA is both a playground and a proving ground for
anyone chasing deals, creativity, and maybe a little splash of weird.

(03:14):
You don't have to be a finance whiz or have
a trust fund to spot value. You just need a
little penny power sparkle, a dash of street smarts, and
the patients to scroll past fifty seven pairs of gently
used roller blades. Whether you're gearing up for a smoothie
filled summer, living that courtside dream, hustling at the keyboard,
trading treasures, or just looking to startle your guests with

(03:35):
Mutant Wildlife Decorp, there's magic out there for you in
Classified's land. Tune in every day for more la deal
hunting drama, and remember every dollar you save or trade
gets you closer to your dreams. Thanks for tuning in,
