Past Cash Mobs

On January 12 we held our first Cash Mob. Over 800 people voted on our Facebook page and chose South Ave boutique Thread as the winner. Thread reported about a 65% increase in business that day!

The mob continued on February 2 at Record Archive: Rochester, NY's favorite independently owned record shop. It's the best place to get new and used vinyl and movie and music. More than music, Record Archive also has a selection of vintage clothing, novelty items, funky furniture and so much more! If you haven't been to their new location- now's the time! With thousands of square feet of merchandise to choose from, you'll find out why "the Record Archive is the place to go!"

Rochester participated in National Cash Mob Day on March 24. Soulstice Artisan Market enjoyed the mob of participants. Shoppers received discounts at nearby establishments with their sales receipts.
