Many people just don't stitch any more and anything related to sewing seems to end up being donated when seniors down-size or move to nursing homes. Have fun hunting.
I finally asked at a local thrift store why I never see any sewing machine attachments, bobbins, etc.---she said "we throw them out ". figured no one could use them !they must still do it because I rarely see bobbins.
