Sorry for the bad picture it's from my phone camera.

A friend scouts out "Care and Share" for me, too.

It is a Christian-based charity. She has found Hoovers for me that were, "OMG"!! I once asked her, "Do you KNOW how hard it is to find THAT model?" She replied, "No, you owe me ten bucks". lol

I found my heritage II at goodwill for $10. Very nice just has a tiny bit of what i assume to be dry bearing noise. The noise is kind of a grind noise i have a youtube vid of my heritage II on my channel. Ill have it linked.

Hit 7 Goodwills today, found a Kirby Sentria Poo kit that has never been used, it even has the unopened sample bottle of Allergen Carpet Shampoo for $4.99 and then found 2 boxes of Electrolux bags at two different Goodwills for $0.99 each. So it's been a Kirby and Electrolux day.

Hit several Goodwills today and found this Montgomery Ward Signature hand vac model 82URC-702 for $3. It's a rebranded Royal Prince. A little cleaning and it looks good. Washed the bag, got most of the stains out of it. The bag still has the MW Signature logo on it.

Sweet

 


 


I like the color of that MW hand vac.


 


I have a relative that could use something like this, for doing stairs.

Hit the thrift stores yesterday, found a NOS pack of Hoover type W bags for $0.90.

Took a pass on a Eureka model 500 canister for $5

 

[vacuumlad1650]

You can't beat 90 cents for a pack of Handisacs!
And Ray could you give me a call back when you get a chance? Thanks!

Hit the thrift stores today, took a pass on a Royal model 880 for $39 (it was almost mint), an Electrolux Epic 6000 canister, an Electrolux model L, another Royal metal upright done all in green and a Panasonic upright. There was also the usual craptastic plastic.

 

[vacuumlad1650]

Which store has the Epic 6000? I may have to go after that...

I fail to understand Goodwill's pricing, today I saw a Kirby G6 for $60, then a Kirby G4 for $10. A Shark for $50 and a Dyson DC24 for $12.
