How to Barter in Your Community
Bartering locally is always a convenience for you and for who you barter with. That means you don't have to travel far and be inconvenienced.

Start off by seeing what you have to trade and make a list of those things. These things that you have to trade goods for can be a talent. Or a car that you are able to run errands for someone. You will be surprised by what you have to trade for something that you may want or need.

Make fliers and post them in your local churches. And community centers, also the local library. You can put fliers in the supermarket. At your job also by your child's school.

You can also hand out the fliers at a meeting at your child's school. When people are coming out of church you can hand out these fliers. Just keep getting your goods out there and you will be surprised how you are able to get somethings that you really need for services that you have.

Don't forget you are obligated to pay taxes on the fair market value of goods and services exchanged as part of your taxable income. -
