''During Trying Economic Times, Some Small Towns Turn To Their Own Currency''

from the consumerist....

"Who hasn't grabbed a handful of Monopoly money and just wished it could be used to purchase things in real life? A few towns are doing that with their own currencies, and it's helping to keep things bustling within their communities.
CNNMoney looked at 11 such places and how their local money works for residents. Of course, one should not take special cash from one town and try to use it elsewhere, but some of these systems seems pretty neat."
