I do too. A while back there was a tote full of"sewing stuff" that they just showed pics of the top stuff inside it. I recognized the box of Madeira embroidery thread(they sell for 25-30), so for ten bucks I got it. One of my best scores. The box of thread was rayon so I sold it, but there was about 20 new spools of Madeira and other good brands of poly and cotton thread, 2 pairs of old Wiss pinkers still in the boxes(and they are SHARP), machine feet, old hooks and fiddly bits I have no idea what they're for made from wood, bone(I think) and steel, just all kinds of cool stuff.
