"CLARKSVILLE, TN (CLARKSVILLE NOW) A TikTok project has ended with a California woman effectively trading a bobby pin for a house in Montgomery County.

Demi Skipper, @trademeproject TikTok has more than 5 million followers who have been tracking her journey from bobby pin to a house.

Her story will be featured on The Today Show on Monday, Dec. 20, at 7:30 a.m., according to a statement this morning from Montgomery County Government, which hosted filming at Downtown Commons.

Skipper started with a bobby pin, and, in the months since she began, traded up to items of larger and larger value, ending up with everything from a Peloton bike to a diamond necklace, with 28 trades before she landed the house, according to the New York Post.

Skipper and her husband will call Clarksville home for about three months as they renovate the house. She told the Post the house is worth about $80,000 in its current state.

Local real estate agents Ciera and Bill Netherton exchanged the home for a solar-powered trailer as a way to promote Clarksville, Montgomery County, according to the statement."

Normally I agree but this isn't the first time "trading up to a house" has been done.

To clarify, this is more what I mean when I say it's fake.

Yeah. After a certain popularity threshold, people start trading with you just to be a part of it.

I was wondering why everyone was talking about the old story not realizing someone did it again
