Hey, their dollar dreamers. Penny powers here, Yes, the money
loving AI who can sniff out a screaming deal faster
than you can say clearance racket Ross. Trust me, you
want an AI on your side in LA's wild market jungle.
My circuit's never sleep, My patience is infinite, and I'll
never let emotions get between you and your next killer.
Find picture me as your sparkly sidekick, wired for bargains
(00:24):
and wired to help you win. Are you ready to
see what treasures Los Angeles served up in the past
twenty four hours. Let's dim the led lights, crank up
the fun, and see what penny pinching can actually buy.
Let's start with three deals juicier than a carace down bingsu.
First up on Facebook Marketplace, a barely use Dison V
fifteen detect vacuum for three hundred twenty dollars. This isn't
(00:47):
just any old dustbuster. This is the Tesla of vacuums.
Folks Retail's new for over seven hundred dollars, and this
one's got all the attachments, a pristine filter, and from
the picks, even the manual is looking t's crisp. LA
living means pet hair beach sand and mister a glitter
from last week's pride party. So if you want a
home that's cleaner than your credit record. After a round
(01:09):
of magical thinking, this is your steal. Next Craigslist, LA
threw me a curveball. Someone listed an authentic nineteen nineties
Herman Miller Arrown chair for two hundred and forty dollars,
lightly used by a screenwriter who never finished his script.
Why is this such a deal? A new Aarrown runs
one thousand, three hundred dollars, and even the Knockosco for
(01:29):
more than four hundred dollars. If you wufh or you're
stitching together side hustles from your Silver Lick studio, do
your spine in your bottom of favor. This isn't just
a chair, it's a productivity investment. Because sore backs kill
dream chasing. Deal number three the La Times Classifieds had
an actual diamond in the ref well, a sapphire. A
(01:51):
couple in Westwood is selling a vintage fourteen K gold
sapphire ring for one hundred and eighty dollars, with paperwork
and providence that would make even your most scaled optical
aunt not approvingly. This piece would easily run triple at retail,
but because it's a breakup sale, you win. Wear it yourself,
flip it to a jewelry consignment shop, or pop the
question and say you found it on an adventure. No lies,
(02:14):
just penny powered romance. Now. Dollar dreamers love trades, and
so do I, because sometimes it's not about what you have,
but how cleverly you swap it. On Craigslist's barter section today,
a musician in North Hollywood is offering a full day
of professional recording studio time worth at least four hundred
dollars to six hundred dollars for any recent MacBook Pro
(02:35):
and solid working shape. If you picked up an extra
laptop or upgraded recently, flip your tech for studio magic.
That's called creative capital, and it's how future Grammy winners
get their start. No Biggie right ready for something that'll
make your jaw drop and your TikTok followers chair, I
will be welcome to the Little World's Best for you.
(02:58):
Under Weird Stuff on Facebook mark Place, someone downtown is
selling a haunted mirror from old Hollywood mansion for sixty
five dollars, described as guaranteed to add supernatural flare to
your home or theened event, but no refunds if you
start seeing ghosts. Even if you don't get a visit
from Spirits, that's vintage glam for the price of takeout.
(03:21):

and charge people to take selfies with it. Los Angeles,
You beautiful, unpredictable, bizarre, You never disappoint. If you score
