Nice to see see that Yoda is alive, well and playing economist.

This is the sort of language up with which we will not put!

The Lewes Pound will no doubt make money circulate more before it leaves the town (I used to work at new economics foundation and did some of the research for the Plugging the Leaks project).

BUT

Since LPs are redeemable by businesses for Sterling, the money will still eventually leave nevertheless.

Are there plans to make the Lewes Pound non-exchangable to sterling at some point in the future? or not? and either way, why?

The latest news is that all 10,000 Lewes Pounds have been bought and people are loving and cherishing them so much that they don't seem to want to spend them - you can't get them for love or money!(That and ebay's temporary rendering of the money worth £30).</p> <p>The Lewes Pound group has taken the plunge and we're printing a lot more so that we can get this community experiment on the road (partly so others can copy us and leapfrog into their own local successes). The stories already abound as LPs are sought after as pocket money, given away as prizes by the Football Club and yes, there is one person who is planning to try to live on Lewes Pounds. Dreams really do come true.</p> Thanks Rob and Alex for documenting so well this historic event.
