NORWAY — The next Cash Mob will be held at 10 a.m. Saturday, July 20. Participants will meet at the Norway Municipal parking lot. Each person should bring $20.

A Cash Mob is a flash mob with a buy-local, community-oriented twist. A Cash Mob is announced with a meeting location and time. The business to be mobbed is not announced in advance. The participants walk to the business and spend their money.

After a particular business is “mobbed” the participants have an After-Mob Party to celebrate the local economy and community. As part of the celebration, prizes donated by local businesses are given away and refreshments are offered, paid for by the After-Mob Party sponsor. Everyone who attends will also receive a fee Cash Mob reusable shopping tote filled with goodies.

The Cash Mob helps two local businesses, the target and the After-Mob Party provider on their bottom line, strengthening the local economy.
