Yesterday launched the first Knox Cash Mob. The idea is a creation of Mayor Tim Burchett‘s out of the box thinking. Emery’s 5 and 10 was the first merchant selected for the Knox Cash Mob. Overall, the first preliminary reports are that the first one was all good.

Shortly before 5 p.m. several media organizations were prepared  with satellite trucks for live broadcast.

Several customers make their way past the live media truck set ups.

Inside customers were checking out all the merchandise to make a purchase.

Many customers stood in line for more than 25 minutes. But it was a good feeling late waiting because  of the significance of helping a business in Knoxville.
