A half-penny a make.
A pound is called a quid a five-pounds a fiver.
Farthings, fourpenny pieces, four and five shilling pieces were common about 25 years ago. They have not gone out of use.
Poteen was widely made and sold. The shop engaged in the sale of poteen was a shebeen. Another drink called "Red Biddy" was made.
Friday was considered the luckiest day to buy or sell. No one would pay out money or "Hansel Monday" that is the first Monday of the year, as you would be paying it out all the year if you paid on that day.
When goods were bought on not paid for they were said to be got on "strap" or on "tick" In the matter of hatching eggs, the system of barter still holds. No one would bring money to pay for hatching eggs. They bring a "setting" of their own eggs and exchange it for an equal number. Eggs and butter are also "bartered" for shop goods, as are also, rabbits or chickens.
They are now nine shops in the village, and three of the shopkeepers have also 'travelling Shops"
