A Cash Mob is a new movement aimed at supporting local businesses and rebuilding communities. A Cash Mob is a Flash Mob, but instead of singing, dancing or rioting, Cash Mobbers join together and each spends $20 at a local business.

So far, Fuquay-Varina Downtown has sponsored seven highly successful and thoroughly enjoyable Cash Mobs in the downtown shopping districts in Fuquay-Varina. Mobbers will meet at the FVDA office, located at 108 Raleigh St., today at 3:45 p.m. and go to a local store to support it, meet each others and have fun.

For more information, go to http://www.cash-mobs.com or contact Naomi Riley or Linda Wood at 919-552-0848 or by email at Linda@Fuquay-VarinaDowntown.com.

Follow Fuquay-Varina Downtown on Facebook and Twitter for MOB alerts at https://www.facebook.com/FVDowntown and https://twitter.com/#!/cmfvdowntown.
