Cash Mob Sherwood

Have you heard about the new Cash Mob Sherwood event?  Some of you may be asking what a cash mob is.  The Cash Mob Sherwood Blog describes it as this:

Have you heard of a flash mob?  A group of people who show up at a predetermined location all at once, perform, and have a blast? Well, similarly, a cash mob is a group of people who show up at a predetermined business all at once, spend some money and have a good time getting goods that do good by supporting locally owned businesses which in turn strengthens our very own economy! 

So on March 17th, Cash Mob Sherwood selected our personal favorite Sweet shop to mob.  The Mob started at 2 pm at Sweet Story in downtown Sherwood.  Many of us here in the office attended.  When I showed up at 3:30 pm, the store was empty-literally.  There were a few customers but the cases were almost empty!! The Mob had purchase so much inventory that she was running extreemly low.  It was a good thing.  Exposing the community to this great local sweet shop is great for business and encourages residents to buy local.  We love supporting our friends and fellow businesses, and we appreciate their support of us. We are anxiously waiting to hear when and where the next Mob will take place.
