I’ll rototill your garden plot if you’ll do a 12 point inspection under the hood of my 1989 Acura. I think if there would be more of those kinds of trade-offs, several things could be accomplished at once: no need for money to change hands; people would learn additional skills to be able to barter successfully and a certain camaraderie would undoubtedly develop between those doing the trade-offs. As a result, we would come in contact with those we might never meet under ordinary circumstances. However, realistically, this would never work on a large scale in today’s world (such as the goofy Sue Lowden suggested). I can’t think of one professional who wouldn’t be insulted at the very idea. “Okay, Doc–I’ll mow your lawn for the entire summer if you’ll do my wife’s appendectomy for nothing”.
