Barter is the trading of goods and services for other goods and services. Before we had notes and coins, barter was the only means of exchanging goods and services.
Bartering stills exists today. Kyle McDonald used the power of bartering to exchange a paper clip for a house. Watch the following Youtube video to see how he did it.
