Barter is a system of exchange by which goods or services are directly
exchanged for other goods or services without using a medium of exchange such
as money – Wikipedia
Do you ever try for
barter system? I know that this system only applicable for long time ago but I
had experiences with this barter system on October 2013.
Glue Kopitam had organized an
activity that he will exchange his books with you and you need to state down
what thing you would like to offer to him in order to get the book. At that time, I have no idea what to offer so
lastly I offer to him a Labuan postcard that introduce some travel places in
Labuan.
At the end of
activity, I was so lucky as I am one of the persons that can exchange with him.
The example of other offers such as “Good Morning” towel (same as the title
of the book that offer), secret, ask he/she any 5 questions and so on. Wow, I
just wonder that how they realize it especially for those with uncountable
offer.
Before I won and read
this book, I did not know about the author and the book. After read about it, I
like this book very much as the story was so funny. The story is all about the
life in Kopitiam or café. This story come out with few characters such as Kopitiam
Boss, waiter, Sate Sifu, Roti Canai Brother, stingy customer and many more. My
mother and sister keep laughing when read for this book.
