I love to barter.
This time of the year especially, it is a wonderful way to get new things for family members without exchanging money.
I recently had a wonderful trade with Funny Farm Toy Barn and received these great hand crafted catapults to give to Abraham for Christmas and some handmade soaps.
Do you enjoy bartering either with your local economy or online?
We love to barter, too... I occasionally do it on etsy. More often, though, we barter at local markets (like the holiday show we just did). And many of our larger farm tools (tractors and implements) have been barter for!
ReplyDeleteWhen we sold our beeswax candles at the local farmer's market, we would exchange with other vendors some times. Looks like you got some good goodies!
