Bartering!  This is an 'old fashioned' method of trade, but I think it really needs to come back- especially with all the tighter budgets!  Today, I just cleaned up a small freezer which looks like new and was bartered for a 55 gallon fish tank we could no longer use and was just sitting in our back yard!  Not only do I have a freezer, and got rid of some 'clutter' but I can buy more goods on sale and save more money!

Do you belong to a bartering group or do you do it online?
