WHAT: ORNL Federal Credit Union (FCU) is calling all small business supporters to participate in a cash mob at Disc Exchange in South Knoxville

WHEN: Thursday, March 27, 2014 – 5:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m.

WHERE: Disc Exchange, 2615 Chapman Hwy., Knoxville, TN 37920

The Disc Exchange is the epitome of small business starting out more than 20 years ago with a rented three-foot counter space in a local pawn shop. Since, the business has transformed into a 12,000 square-foot brick and mortar store, and continues to make its mark in the Knoxville community. Although the Disc Exchange is commonly known as a record store, the independently-owned business offers much more including CDs, records, DVDs, t-shirts, and posters, among other entertainment items.

With more than 100,000 old and new titles on its sales floor, the Disc Exchange provides a large selection of items and a knowledgeable, friendly staff which are just two of the reasons why it has been selected as the site of ORNL Federal Credit Union’s next Small Business Counts cash mob on Thursday, March 27 from 5:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m.

The Small Business Counts cash mob program was created in July 2013 as a way to recognize and show support for local merchants, like Disc Exchange, in the 16 counties that ORNL FCU serves by encouraging people to shop locally during a given date and time. The programincludes the promotion and support of one or two local businesses each month and will continue throughout 2014. The first 30 customers to arrive at each cash mob receive a $20 gift card to use within the store, courtesy of ORNL Federal Credit Union.
