You can buy sewing machines at many stores from the cheaper (target, walmart) to midrange (sears) to expensive (upper end sewing machine stores). At times, you can also pick them up at garage sales or thrift stores, then there is always ebay.
A few questions to ask yourself when you are looking:
*Do you want a mechanical or a computerized machine?
*Do you feel comfortable with purchasing out of retail store like walmart or sears, or do you want the personalized service and maintenance of a sewing machine store?
*With the multitude of features, are you going to go with what you really want or just what you need?
If possible, test drive before you plunk down your cash. Bring samples of different types of fabrics and check out how the machine handles them.
I recommend you look at pattern review after you narrow your choices down. Also, about.com has input from readers on their machines.

Sears would be a good choice or Wal Mart. Also, stores like Jo Ann offer sewing courses at their stores, which might help you after your purchase.
