asciilifeform: there were others
asciilifeform: not sure if a complete list even exists
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: A number of shittier ones. You trade dollars for "club money" dancers trade the club monopoly money for dollars. Like casino chips, but more tarded

asciilifeform: back side reads 'this cheque is not subject to resale'
asciilifeform: abolished in '88.
asciilifeform: amusing story was, that the closure was announced in advance. and holders of the 'cheques' struggled to cash them in, somehow, somewhere
asciilifeform: was a kind of 'bitcoin gem'
asciilifeform: the shops ended up 'privatized'
asciilifeform: and eventually disappeared
decimation: heh that's amusing
asciilifeform: in '91 dollars were legalized
asciilifeform: and the remaining 'birch' took them directly from all-comers.
asciilifeform: (to clarify, 'cheques' were abolished in '88, rather than the k00l k1dz shops)

asciilifeform never saw one of these things alive, only knows secondhand
decimation: so presumably these 'cheques' were only handed out to foreigners and people with notes from stalin
asciilifeform: aha.
decimation: I wouldn't mind collecting a few of those
decimation: I would add them to my collection of weimar notes

asciilifeform: if anything, far lower than, e.g., buenos aires
asciilifeform: but here - robots, there - people.
decimation: yeah that's a fair point.
