That's a brilliant tip. Shilpa, if you can get someone like Sam Clark involved, the job's half done. Well worth trying to get in touch.

I'll be there, great idea. There is an article in the Standard today about cashmobs in Enfield:

"inspired by a similar scheme in the US"??

I read that and thought I remembered reading something else about this Enfield cash mob - and found it here on HoL!

Seems like the organiser wrote to Harringay Market saying:

"Thanks so much for organising this cash mob. I heard about it on twitter and was then inspired to organise a SHOCK Cash Mob, in Enfield!"

What's this inter-borough rivalry!

Hey Hello JeremyS! Not inter-borough rivalry!! Inter-borough INSPIRATION! A friend of mine pointed out on Twitter what you guys had done in Harringay, with the market cash mob....and suggested that I should organise one in Enfield. In every interview I've done, I've credited Harringay with inspiring me and in The Standard interview too but it didn't get mentioned in the article. I wrote that comment quoted above. I think it is very important to thank people for their inspiration. xx

So thank you again, for your inspiration, I added my own little twists to the ones in Enfield, so they very much have a local stamp on them and quirkiness.

You can read about our cash mob at a sweet shop, here....http://www.mycoffeestopstories.blogspot.co.uk/2012/10/shock-cashmob...

Hi Karen. Great you have this going in Enfield. And nice to see another Harringay resident picking up on the idea locally. The more we can get local business supported everywhere the better.
