OPPENHEIMER CASH RESERVES

Supplement dated March 24, 2009 to the
Prospectus dated
November 28, 2008

This supplement amends the Prospectus of Oppenheimer Cash Reserves (the "Fund") dated November 28, 2008. It replaces the supplement dated January 9, 2009 and is in addition to the supplement dated December 10, 2008.

Effective April 1, 2009, the Prospectus is amended as follows:

1. In the section titled "Fees and Expenses of the Fund," footnote 6 under the chart entitled Annual Fund Operating Expenses on page 6 is deleted in its entirety and is replaced by the following:

6.     OppenheimerFunds Distributor, Inc. (the Distributor) has voluntarily agreed to reduce the "Class B and Class C Distribution and/or Service (12b-1) Fees" by 0.50% for Class B and Class C shares and by 0.25% for Class N shares of the average annual net assets for each respective class of shares. That undertaking may be amended or withdrawn by the Distributor at any time. After the Distributor’s waiver, the "Distribution and/or Service (12b-1) Fees" for Class B, Class C, and Class N were each 0.25%.

2. In the section titled "Fees and Expenses of the Fund," footnote 7 under the chart entitled Annual Fund Operating Expenses on page 6 is deleted in its entirety and is replaced by the following:

7.     "Other Expenses" include transfer agent fees, custodial fees, and accounting and legal expenses that the Fund pays. The "Other Expenses" in the table are based on, among other things, the fees the Fund would have paid if the transfer agent had not waived a portion of its fees under a voluntary undertaking to the Fund to limit those fees to the lesser of 0.35% of average daily net assets. That undertaking may be amended or withdrawn at any time. For the fiscal year ended July 31, 2008 the Transfer Agent fees did not exceed those expense limitations. Effective January 1, 2009 the Manager has voluntarily undertaken to waive fees and/or reimburse expenses to the extent necessary to assist the Fund in attempting to maintain a positive yield. There is no guarantee that the Fund will maintain a positive yield. That undertaking may be amended or withdrawn at any time.

3. In the section titled "Fees and Expenses of the Fund," footnote 8 under the chart entitled Annual Fund Operating Expenses on page 6 is deleted in its entirety and is replaced by the following:

8.     After taking into consideration the waivers of the "Management Fees," "Other Expenses" and "Distribution and/or Service (12b-1) Fees" that are effective as of April 1, 2009, the "Total Annual Operating Expenses" would be 0.89% for Class A shares, 0.90% for Class B shares, 0.89% for Class C shares and 0.92% for Class N shares, as a percentage of average daily net assets.

4. The section titled "Distribution and Service (12b-1) Plans – Distribution and Service Plans for Class B, Class C and Class N Shares," beginning on page 31 of the Prospectus is deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following:

Distribution and Service Plans for Class B, Class C and Class N Shares. The Fund has adopted Distribution and Service Plans for Class B, Class C and Class N shares to pay the Distributor for its costs and services in distributing those shares and in maintaining accounts and providing shareholder services. Under the plans, the Fund pays the Distributor an asset based sales charge calculated at an annual rate of 0.75% of the daily net assets of Class B and Class C shares and 0.25% of the daily net assets of Class N shares. The Distributor is entitled to receive a service fee of 0.25% per year under the Class B and Class C plans, but the Board of Trustees has not authorized the Fund to pay the service fees on Class B and Class C shares at this time. The Distributor is entitled to receive a service fee of 0.25% per year under the Class N plan. Beginning April 1, 2009, the Distributor has voluntarily decreased the asset-based sales charge on Class B and Class C shares to an annual rate of 0.25% of average daily net assets and has voluntarily decreased the service fee on Class N shares to 0%.

After the waivers outlined above, the asset based sales charges increase Class B, Class C and Class N annual expenses by 0.25%, calculated on the daily net assets of the class. If the Class B and Class C asset-based sales charge and service fee were assessed at the maximum permitted rates, they would increase Class B and Class C annual expenses by 1.00% and would increase the Class N annual expenses by 0.50% calculated on the daily net assets of the class.

Because these fees are paid out of the Fund’s assets on an on going basis, over time these fees will increase the cost of your investment and may cost you more than other types of sales charges.

If the service fees were currently charged, the Distributor would use them to compensate dealers for maintaining accounts and providing personal services to Class B, Class C, and Class N shareholders. In that case, the Distributor would normally pay dealers the 0.25% Class N service fees in advance for the first year after shares were purchased and then pay that fee periodically.


Class B Shares: At the time of a Class B share purchase, the Distributor generally pays dealers a sales concession of 1.00% of the purchase price from its own resources. The Distributor normally retains the Class B asset based sales charge. Class B shares are not offered to new omnibus group retirement plans. See the Statement of Additional Information for exceptions.


Class C Shares: At the time of a Class C share purchase, the Distributor generally pays dealers a sales concession of 0.25% of the purchase price from its own resources. The Distributor normally retains the asset based sales charge on Class C share purchases during the first year and then pays that fee to the dealer as an ongoing concession. For Class C shares purchases in certain omnibus group retirement plans or through the OppenheimerFunds Record(k)eeper Pro program, the Distributor pays the dealer the asset based sales charge during the first year instead of paying a sales concession at the time of purchase. The Distributor pays the service fees it receives on those shares to the dealer or to FASCore, LLC for providing shareholder services to those accounts. See the Statement of Additional Information for exceptions to these arrangements.


Class N Shares: At the time of a Class N share purchase, the Distributor generally pays dealers a sales concession of 0.50% of the purchase price from its own resources. The Distributor normally retains the asset based sales charge on Class N shares. For Class N shares purchased in certain omnibus group retirement plans the Distributor may pay the dealer the asset based sales charge and service fee during the first year instead of paying a sales concession and the first year’s service fees at the time of purchase. See the Statement of Additional Information for exceptions to these arrangements.
