Man Drives Across USA, Only Uses Bacon As Currency

Josh Sankey needs your help.
In a clever marketing move by Oscar Meyer, they have put him in a trailer, filled it with piles and piles of bacon and are seeing if he can make it coast-to-coast only using their bacon as currency.
No coins, no bologna. Just bacon.
“I need your help. I’m driving from NY to LA with no cash and no cards—just a trailer full of Butcher Thick Cut Bacon to barter with you for everything I need," Josh explains.
Ha, once again it matters not what you sell...it's how you sell it! dm
