Lorry drivers en route from Beit Bridge to Harare were asked to pay for the ladies' services in 20 litre lots of diesel. The income provided from selling the fuel to locals would apparently double their normal income.
While there is no indication that this form of payment is still going on it does show how prized diesel is in Zimbabwe.

Not bad thinking at all, that.
If the money is worthless but diessel is worth a prety penny, I would do the same in the circs!
Oh, with the oil prices going where they are going, we should start studying this model closer. The only prob is - what would I sell for diesel?
My only hope is that there are a lot of bears out there!
