BBQ bartering
Montana's pays for psychic readings and haircuts with meat.

Bartering certainly doesn’t get the respect of the monetary system, but every now and then we’re reminded of its effectiveness. Think back to 2006, when Montreal native Kyle MacDonald went from having a red paper clip to a house after just 14 exchanges. More recently, Montana’s Cookhouse sent a spokesman out with a platter of BBQ in an effort to exchange the meat for their goods and services, including an MMA lesson, psychic reading, new shoes and a haircut, proving that a tasty meal is a really valuable currency in the modern world.
