I went into our GW store yesterday just to look. I always go to the household section first. There was a Kenmore in a cabinet and I passed that and then looked a little further. I couldn't believe it. There was a pink Atlas machine like my mom's old one that's in my basement and it was in this beautiful cabinet!. I looked for a price-$9.99! so I hunted up an emplyee and asked her if that really was the price-Yup! Si I bought it. have no idea where I'm putting it. These are the pix-I haven't done anything to it except nearly kill myself to get it out of my car and into the house. It is identical to my mom's. I haven't even checked to see if it runs or not.

Wow! What a buy!

Wow !!! I've been looking for an Atlas. Not that I need another machine at all. But I just love the pink.
I was at a yard sale a couple months ago and found a bunch of Atlas accessories and asked if she had the machine as well. Nope, they took it to a local charity. Now, normally I would have gone right down to that charity to see if they had it, but I know that place. They leave things out in the rain and even inside things are filthy. I did find some machines there one day stuffed under a table. They were nothing special and didn't have the stuff to go with them and they wanted 60 to 80 bucks each for them. That was just crazy. So I am still on the search. We don't have a local Goodwill but I have checked out a couple in Vegas and they are the high dollar type places. When they are charging 3 bucks for Dollar Store DVD's you always know they will be pricey through out. I did find a lone Singer in a busted up case. I couldn't tell the model or condition of the machine, but they wanted 150. for it. |
Wow, what a fabulous deal!! Even if it doesn't work a lick, it's just so darned pretty!!
|
You found your Mom's long lost twin machine :D:D:D
Great find :D:D:D |
Congrats on scoring an Atlas. Love the pink! :thumbup:
|
OH MY all that for 9.99...why can't I find these things in my GW's...I'm moving to where you ladies live. NY they think everything is a find and act like Antique dealers in our Salvation Army and GW's...high priced
|
You got an unbelievable bargain!
|
Wow, great treasure.
The knee lever is really easy to use. You're going to like it better than using your foot. |
WOW GREAT BUY AND ONE OF MY FAVRITE COLORS!!!!!
GREAT PRICE :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup: |
