Umm...try Tesco, i noticed they had some displayed near their Telly's failing that. Argos are quite good! Or if u want a really cheap one, head to your local car boot, should get a decent running machine for under £10/- i did!

If you have a local auction house you could try there, as our local one sells them off for next to nothing

Lidl is selling one for £39. Looks ok. I got one from Aldi a few months back - that was also £39. The mother in law thinks it was good value for money.

Hi,
Have you looked on Ebay? I got one for £15 last year, it is a reconditioned one. The best thing was it came from a school and it is the same one I learnt to sew on! (it doesnt look the best but it does everything I need)

In Tescos yesterday, I saw they have a brother sewing machine on offer until April 17th for £44ish(it had £25 off).

yep my lidl still has the £39 machine in stock and lod of them. Good price - I paid over £100 for mine a few years back.

T J Hughes have them for under £50, sorry can't remember exact price but they were lightweight ones.

I bought the Lidl one - it seems quite good if a little plasticy, it seems to run smoothly enough.
