Bill has now been added to my list of gods, right next to Mata.

For those of you who haven't heard about it, The Mob Project was organized by a guy named Bill in NYC. Via email he got about 200 people to flash mob Macey's. They all gathered around a single rug and told the sales people that they were looking for a love rug for their commune. After about 10 minutes of debating they all just turned around and left. If you want to know more than inadaquate little me was able to tell you, look up The Mob Project on Yahoo! or some other search engine.

After I heard about this on the news, (and stopped laughing long enough to pick myself up off of the floor, where I had literally been rolling around clutching my stomach), I came up with a sadistic way to flash mob Wal-Mart. Have everyone in on the mob go to the counters and buy a single pack of cheap gum. To pay, use a debit card, credit card, or a really big bill. The ones with the debit and credit cards get $20 or more cash back. Get enough people to do that and you can get just about every bill and coin that Wal-Mart has under the size of a 20. It will frustrate the cashiers, the CSMs, and the managers, and if you're really lucky they might even have to close the store until they can get smaller bills!
