    Default 3 sewing machines at a Rummage Sale

    Saw these 3 sewing machines at The Grace Christian Schools in Watervliet Michigan Rummage sale for $5.00 each
    The Viking was working and so was the Riccar. The singer did not have a foot pedal. So could not tell if it worked or not. The sale is until 5 today. Not sure what time they are opened tomorrow but they close at 5 tomorrow also. The Viking came with a case.

    That's a great find. Hope you enjoy getting all the children in working order and maybe, if you decide to sell them, a good profit also.

    Lovely machines, I have been buying them for a charity group that is in Rochester, MN. They fix machines and then send them to women who need them to make a living.

    Run! Get the Vikin and Riccar for sure. I am not sure if I would want to bother with the Singer as it has pedal and it is not a model I would want.

    Sounds like a great deal. I never seem to run across any quilting or sewing items at sales. I don't go to many anymore because I really don't need to bring any more stuff home. I always ask though about any sewing or quilting items. Hope you enjoy playing with your new machines
