Barter: to trade by exchanging one commodity for another.
See what I got? A pizza peel.
When the gentlemen brought the item to duplicate, he told us he was the wood worker. He asked if I ever found a peel. I told him no and I ordered a peel. When he came to pick up his order, little money was exchanged as we bartered!!!
I love a good deal. This one was especially sweet since I did no work, it was all up to the blacksmith.

Patti, you are one clever girl--bartering the Blacksmith's labor for your gain!
But now you will have to make a lot of homemade pizzas. :)
I've never had one of these!..
OK, you are definitely one up on me, you clever gal! That Pizza peel is awesome. I'm going to have to take barter lessons from you. We barter all the time, but I'm not nearly as clever as you are.
I bartered an embroidery job with the small engine repair guy down the road for a lawn mower. So, not only did I have to work for the barter, but I bartered for an items that caused me work!
Love my pizza peel, which I use for my bread rounds also. But I had to buy mine.......good for you bartering for one. And bartering The Blacksmith's labor to boot!
Word verification must be spying on me! The work is FLABLISH!!!! Pretty close to flabish, with emphasis on the ish!
'Gotta love that Blacksmith.
Oh the art of barterin' is almost a lost art these days.
Hubs does manage a wee bit every now and again.
