There are still barter ‘clubs’. My cousin’s daughter works for a printing company. The owner belongs to a barter club and is always giving her stuff that he traded work for....tickets to Magic Mountain, Seaworld, etc. That is just the stuff he gives her family.

Years ago I traded eggs to a man who worked at a creamery for surprise flavor ice cream. Every time they changed the flavor on the mixing machines, it was easier to squeeze out a few gallons of the mixed flavor than clean the machinery between flavors.

Some of those mixes were really more tasty than the pure flavors.
