Crowd turns out for Market Day in Mountain Brook Village

Whether it is the mild summer weather, the steep discounts or the recent launch of an advertising campaign bringing out the crowds, Mountain Brook Village shop owners could not be more pleased with today's turnout for Market Day.
Despite the nationwide recession, people are out strolling and spending at the 8 a.m.-5 p.m. event.
"It's even better" than last year, said Marguerite Ray, owner of Marguerite's Conceits boutique. "I'm so exhausted."
With many shops offering especially discounted items under outdoor tents in front of their stores, people with baby carriages and dogs are able to enjoy the unseasonably comfortable weather and find bargains.
