A tomato seedling given in exchange for a good joke, now flourishing and producing tasty toms. Freshly-dug carrots in exchange for the loan of an awning. Boiler-service in exchange for a drawing. Tree canker from a passing traveller in exchange for a pint of beer. Small change given to a busker who couldn't be bothered to spend it. Hazelnuts offering.
