    A portable sewing machine with a metal head is much more valuable than one with a plastic head. Great find!
    Also, the “Thieves” carrier is from a mail-order company with all natural products. The carrier is typically used for storing their cleaning supplies. I would suggest painting the bottom rim, inside and outside, with a clear sealant to deter rusting. Clear nail polish works well for this.

    You should check the Singer 301 to see if its bobbin is there, it's the same bobbin a Featherweight uses and worth more than $3 itself.
    It's also a good idea not run the machine with the presser foot down without fabric there, it can wear down the feed dogs and scuff up the bottom of the presser foot.

I had a large collection of Legos when I was a kid, just the basic blocks, plates, bases, etc. I still have them, but they are all dirty after heavy use over my youth. The sets today, which are pieces to make one specific thing, aren’t as creative as the basic sets were, especially for constructing buildings. We don’t have Value Village where I live here in the western US. Not sure if there are any at all in the US. I think the closest we have to it would be Goodwill stores.

      That said, if you would still like to choose pedantry over common sense, "not for profit" is a principle of tax law, not of profitability. It means that they don't pay taxes on their profits as long as the profits are used according to the tax laws under which they operate.

    I’m biting my knuckle watching you pick up that outstanding Singer in the perfect case. I have my fancy overpriced Bernina 780 (about 95% reliable) but when that one breaks down, out comes my 501c which puts the Bernina to shame. I try not to collect them, but they are such outstanding machines and work forever. And there’s never a dearth of Singer mechanics. My favorite CZcams guy is Andy Tube. Even my 14-year-old granddaughter can follow along with him. Keep that one. If your daughter gets interested in sewing, she can’t go wrong with that machine.

    Thrift stores in my City go through everything, and put hot wheels, star wars, transformers etc etc all behind the counter in the boutique with outrageous prices!

    That was fun finding the sequestered Singer sewing machine!
    Lego is like a suction machine when you start with the mini figures! Enjoy and have fun!
    I have a bunch to identify, price and list. I did a few several years ago, but they have gone up in price, so the unlisted ones need checking. Because I was not totally familiar with them, I.sold a mispaint for $$$s under the going price.

    FYI, Thieves is an essential oil blend from Young Living Oils that is good for immune boosting.

    Have given away many Lego figures through the yrs. My grandson still takes some home now and then. We still have some Star wars figures and MANY others. Used to have the batman Legos too but have given away. Also, gave a huge Star Wars Lego set to a kiddo I used to mentor as well. I think it had a remote control. Probably could've retired on all that I've given away. Oh well, someone is enjoying them hopefully. 🙂

    I live in Vancouver, and I am blown away by how neat and tidy this Value Village is! I worked in a Value Village, way back in 1990/91, and we worked constantly to pick up, tidy up, and clean up after customers but there's no way we could keep it like this one. Are they all like that in Alberta? Wow. Sad note? The one I worked at, the one closest to me just burned down! We all doubt it will be replaced.

    The prices at the Sacramento are out of sight. I'm shocked at how close to retail they are for certain items.

    It’s amazing to me that the lovely little vintage sewing machine is less money than a bag of Lego! No offence to Lego! I’m from Red Deer, and disappointed I didn’t find the sewing machine!
