I just want to give a huge shut to our Rustdustrial family, for the fourth time in 2026 we have set a new monthly sales record. I have to admit that earlier in September things didnāt look so good as far as sales went, but I knew Antique Alley was coming up. Although I knew in the past that our sales went up during Antique Alley, but no where near what happened this time around. I knew that I wanted to run a sale during the big event, and I was thinking
20% off would be a good amount. Then I heard this voice in my head that I immediately recognized, it was the voice of God. Folks Iāve been through a lot of things in my life, and believe me when I tell you that I know Godās voice š¤. I clearly heard God say 50%, so I immediately sent a message to my friends at Cleburne Antiques and told them that I wanted to run a 50% off everything sale. Now Iāve done a couple of these big sales over the past few years, and quite honestly I was disappointed. However when I did this in the past, I was trying to make something happen. This time I truly felt that God was telling me to do this sale.
Once we put the 50% sale on things totally busted loose. The two weeks before the sale we had sold 5 or 6 items total, folks that was not a good thing at all. During the sale we sold close to 200 items, yes you read that right, almost 200 items. Not only did we set a new monthly sales record, no folks we crushed the old record. Wow, God is so good. What a blessing the sale turned out to be, not only did we set a new high, we were also able to get our inventory under control. We cleared out every nook and cranny in the Rustdustrial booth, and we cleared out our storage building at home, not to mention the backseat of the old F150. What an incredible feeling of accomplishment this sale was.
Thank you Jesus.
Now weāre a couple of days into October and I feel like we have a handle on things. The booth is once again full of awesomeness, but it doesnāt feel cluttered as it did before. We have lots of new finds from our treasure hunts spread throughout the booth. I can now actually walk around in our storage building which was barely possible before. The building actually has real walls and a floor too š. Please come on by and check out the new uncluttered look of the Rustdustrial booth (Dealer 327). You can find us inside Cleburne Antiques at 204 South Caddo Street in historic downtown Cleburne, Texas.
Love and blessings
