    No $50 bills ever found here either but I did find an original Singer walking foot (aka "The Penguin") included with a $25 Singer.

    And I have found Baddies.... (is baddies a word?) I guess so, spellcheck didn't bounce it. But it bounced spellcheck, so I don't know. But yea, I have found everything from bullets to mouse,.. um, presents too.
    I would have preferred a penguin. And not penguin droppings, or a real penguin, although it would be cool to have a real penguin. lol. A walking foot penguin would be preferred.

    I have found a mouse nest or two before. I'm thinking that machine may still have it, too.

    Quick sale in his dreams. I've seen one of those gathering cobwebs at a certain antiques bazaar for nearly a year at $55 and it had the original cover.
