Come to think about it, mass buying food vouchers wherever possible during times of extreme currency instability is probably not a novel idea.

People traded black market food-voucher derivatives in the Brazilian hyper inflation…
It made it easier to redeem all of them as soon as you got a hold of them, because they wouldn’t buy the same thing through the entire month. Natural gas vouchers were more stable, though, so those only traded at face value.
