Broken belt likely.
It may be b/c the belt is broken. Here is one example of a video. It's pretty easy to do. If I remember correctly the difficulty of doing the procedure depends on if your lint collector is on the bottom or top of the machine. The top-mounted ones were easier:

You could probly get someone like S. Side Appliance, or Dormont Appliance to come and do that job for your for $50. I wouldn't pay anymore. The parts, and any tools you may have to buy will be much less than even $50

Sounds like a broken belt to me. This would be the belt that wraps around the drum and motor. You will need to remove the lower front cover ( 2 small screws ) and look with a flashlight to see if the belt is broken or came off of the motor pulley. Most likely it's broken. It's a pretty easy repair. the lower front panel screws are pointed towards the floor so they're kind of hidden a little at an angle.
