The "reverse-Groupon"
 
I just read this article, about "Cash Mobs" - being organized to "mob" local businesses, and spend money there!

The guy who started it calls it a "reverse Groupon". A group of people is organized to spend their money locally - with no discount! (Because the idea is to help local businesses to survive and thrive...)

It seems like a fascinating phenomenon...

You can read (or hear) more about it here...
