How about foil bags? Eight-O-Clock coffee comes in foil bags. I would have to get a lot to have enough to barter with. I am loathe to go without coffee. ;-)

Tobacco is urgent with the new tax of $24 per lb. coming April 1st. I'm only paying about $18 p. lb. now. I have several pounds now but I'd like to get as far ahead of that commie 0bammie tax as I can. Tobacco seeds too. More good barter items.

Metal containers are always better for preservation than plastic. Tobacco is a good barter item too but difficult to keep fresh. (Besides, I quit smoking on 8-31-2007)
