Aberdeen Cash Mob helped make Saturday the most successful sales day for Harbor Books — 2200 Simpson Ave., in Hoquiam — and its owners, Melinda Einander and her wife Kaide. The group was also able to help another small business, Solid Coffee — 1941 Riverside Ave., in Hoquiam. “Cash Mob is such a good (way) to see all the small places, either the ones you knew about or the ones you never knew were there,” said Stephanie Navarra, who was shopping with an exuberant and wandering toddler. “This is so cool. I hope more people come because this was a great turnout.”
