Oh gosh, Joann's has got a bunch of their machines on sale!
 

*Drool* So many nice new machines. I don't need one though. I've gotta be good and not spend what I don't have.

Ooh...http://www.joann.com/brother-se400-c...prd_10225795a/

WALMART HAS THAT FOR 389 EVERYDAY. thats where i bought mine over a year ago

Always double check the quality of these machines. Many made for Walmart, Joann, etc..are made with somewhat less quality parts. IE..plastic instead of metal. They are less costly for a reason. Try seeking out an actual sewing machine store.Many sell vacumns & sewing machines. The ones around here are great! Always helpful with the machine & advice long after purchase & usually they also do repairs. For an 'extra' $100. or so..it may well be worth it . At least, that's what I found to be true. Good luck, with whatever you choose!

Pls don't drool too much over the "sales" at big box stores. Joann's is the Walmart of the sewing/crafting world. If you want a new machine go to a dealer. They're prices are competitive. They really want your business. You'll get classes advice & way better service. Give the local dealer a shot before you buy & regret

I agree with Franklindixie and Ellgeo...I would never buy any big ticket item from Walmart or Joanns. I bought a rolling bag for my sewing machine from Joanns and they wouldnt stand behind the item which was defective. Eventually I did get my money back directly from the manufacturer, but it was a big hassle. Of course, be sure the dealer you go to is a good one as well, but even a bad dealer would be better, in my humble opinion :)

I disagree, I bought my SQ9000 from Wal Mart a couple of years ago and it still does all I ask of it.
I bought my Brother PE 770 online from a Vac/sewing machine store and it too does what I ask of it.
My Janome 11543 was purchased off of Overstock.com and it runs just as good as the day it was delivered.
Also if I ever had a problem with a product bought at either of these stores. My issues were taken care of to my satisfaction every time.

I would rather give my business to Wal Mart or Jo-Ann's any day.
