OMGosh, OMG, OMG! L@@kie what I found today at Goodwill !!
 

I am still so excited I can't believe what I found today at Goodwill; my very own Singer Featherweight, in the original case, all in beautiful condition with TWO boxes of attachments and tools. Decals in excellent shape and the serial number tells me (ISMACS) she was born October 31, 1951 ! Amazing; simply amazing.

I forgot to say that it was priced at $39.95 (nope, I'm not kidding!) I grabbed it up and will love it forever! It is missing the bobbin case and the footpedal/power cord.

What a wonderful find! I'm going to have to go to those places more often. I usually just go to donate items! Guess I'll have to go inside now.

That is so cool!

Fantastic Find!!!

Awesome find!

Looks like you may have found a Centennial model, to boot! Great find -- you will enjoy it!

Score!! Good for you.

someday I keep hoping , I'll kick a little Black Box and there'll be something in it. Look down and see a price under $50. open the Box and find a brand new little black sewing machine. someday ..

This must have been a sewing machine kinda day .. :thumbup: you found the best, I found the worst we both came home with a happy face ..

Wow. Amazing! I look at Goodwill all the time. I've even asked and the gal at the front knew exactly what i was asking about. She said she's never seen one there before. You won the lottery today!

Congrats on the best find ever@ Goodwill. I think Goody would be an appropriate name for it. Beautiful!

Your lucky day!

That's fantastic! Hope it's up and running soon!

Omg...omg...excited fir you! And at that price! It looks really good too! Bobbin case gonna cost but pedal/cord is affordable. Happy for you!

Great Score! It's what keeps us looking :)

I was at an antique shop and located an old cardboard box of attachments (OLD style, not newer ones). The guy at the counter said "bet you never expected to find something like that here" I just smiled, but the truth is that is exactly what I hope to find when I stop at those places LOL!!

Yay for your your great find! That's why I keep making my round of the thrift shops. You just never know what you will find.

Wow!! What a terrific find!! Lucky, lucky you!!! Enjoy your new toy!!

Way to go! Enjoy her for years to come!

What an awesome find! You definitely won the lottery on that one! Congratulations!

Congratulations you hit the mother load. Very happy for you. Awesome.

What a great find and at a more than great price. I thought I did really well when I found one for $125 in very nice condition but it had no manual or accessories.

Think footpedal is about $60.00 on internet, but if you have a damaged machine at home, maybe?? Either way still ahead in the price for singers are very expensive nowadays. People are going back to their oldies machine for they last ever. I found my 1st machine singer in yard sale $10.00 and sold to a quild member $30.00 before I knew to quilt and realize the use of such machine. I regret but live and learn.

Congratulations! Great find. You will enjoy her and will be able to find a replacement bobbin case and cord/foot pedal without problems. You did great!!

Oh my goodness, great find. Congratulations. I have never seen anything that nice at a GW. But, reading this forum one day, I read that a girl who was prowling around in a pawn shop while her husband was there trading or something, and way in the back found this little black case and peeked in to find a FW--the guy thought it was just a piece of luggage, and she held onto it until he charged her something like $20 for it and she floated out of that place on a cloud. Now every time DH and I go by a pawn shop I say, "wonder if they have a FW."

Congrats on your fabulous find! Happy stitching!

Good for you, If they have something even close here they price it over 100. Sometimes they have older machines that are obviously very broken and they still want a lot for them.

OK, I just fainted but I'm ok, don't worry. I can't believe this! If you ever find another one, I'll give you a commission & a big hug if you'll buy it for me.
PS CONGRATULATIONS!!!

The word ROBBERY comes to mind. LOL This is a great find and a terrific deal. Get her running and give us an update.

*** Good deal
*** but around here they ask that much or more for old plastic junk

*** and SA is asking $249. for a coffin box machine.

It happens! I found a minty one with case and all attachments at the thrift store for $34.99. That was now at least 10 yrs ago. I couldn't believe my luck!! It definitely was NOT a centennial though!! What a bonus that is!

nice find.. congrats on the beauty you have found. you may want to look on sew classics web site you may find what is missing from machine there.

What an amazing find, I'm so happy for you and what a bargain.

that's amazing. i keep looking, but none have come to my neighborhood

wow you do have a great find. and the price , lucky you. congrats

Congratulations!!! It's gorgeous!! Super deal!! Now that I can get out again, I'm going to start hitting those places again. DH will have a fit but he will get over it.

WOW--great for you, have fun :)

and that might be a cheaper option.

Wow! Oh, Wow!!! You must have been a very good girl to find this treasure...
