    The shopgoodwill.com site may have good prices until you add the shipping...

    It's just a matter of time until you ship will come in at the bargain spots.

    Great Job!! I would have been curious enough to open that suitcase up too!!! I didnt look as though there would be a sewing machine in it!!! You got a great bargain :mrgreen: I keep looking but havent found anything yet!!! I did find my walker with a seat for under 50.00 alot less than at the stores. It was in perfect shape-I could have waited because if items at our salvation army are there for very long they take offers but I just couldnt pass it up!!! Our Goodwill is high also but ocassionally you can find some bargains. I found a thrift store in Mexico MO that was very reasonable - will hit that one next time I am there!!! I love looking for bargains and you sure got one...Congrats :thumbup:

    My Goodwill has gone completely Crazy on their prices.
    They get it for free and charge almost the price of NEW.

    Poor people use to be able to dress decently from G W but cannot even afford them now.

    They would have asked at least $100.(if not more) here.

    Lucked out for sure. What a wonderful prize for you. !!! You must have been living right lol
    Most of the things I find now at the thrift stores are not worth my money. I saw a chair I wanted, $70 um no not me. I see a lot of broken scratched up and junky things now. I have a thrift store I am going to go to with a friend of my brothers wife on Monday its for the SPCA lets see if its any different.

    LUCKY YOU, our local good will has a website, and you couldn't find a mason jar with lid there for 3.99 as they only put the clothes and JUNK out, therefore I never go there anynmore.:(
