Where can you buy sewing machines?
In sewing machines, you "get what you pay for" so it is often a mistake to buy a new, cheap sewing machine. The trick is to have someone else pay the premium price for a good machine and then pick it up used for a small portion of the original cost. Sources for no-cost machines are : your local Freecycle forum and the local landfill (don't laugh, I have picked up several machines there). Also, ask friends, neighbors, and relatives - they sometimes have Grandma's old sewing machine in a closet just wondering what to do with it. Low-price sources for sewing machines are thrift shops, local auctions, and yard sales. Machines from all these free and low-cost sources will probably require a professional cleaning and lubrication for about $50. Sewing machine dealers often take in trade-ins and resell them at reasonable prices. These machines are cleaned, oiled, and tested and sometimes even come with a short guarantee.
