Buy Tetlas

​

Buy tetlas from someone who already has them. The Tetla organization does not sell Tetlas for money, but other people do. Look for them in our directory. You can find the directory by clicking on the place that says "Where can I spend tetlas?"  If you don't find anyone there, you can contact us to ask if we know of anyone who is selling tetlas. At the time this is being written, "It's Only Natural" (i.O.N.) clothing store in downtown Victoria is selling tetlas. They are located at 1312 Government Street.

Offer a discount

​

We recommend that you allow customers to pay the full purchase price of your products or services in Tetlas, but that's not the only way to do it. You can also allow only part of the purchase price to be paid in tetlas. That's basically the same as offering a discount except that you get tetlas for the amount of the discount and if you find a useful way to spend them, you recoup the entire amount of the discount.

​

Sell your stuff or maybe teach a skill

​

If you don't have a business, you can offer something for sale anyway such as an old computer, a used car, musical instruments, sports equipment, whatever you think people might want to buy. These can be listed on this website as well. You can also offer to teach people some skill you have or to provide some service.

Work for Tetlas

​

Tetlas can be given to workers as a bonus or as part of their pay. If you are interested in getting a job where some or all of the pay is in tetlas, please send email to info@tetla.org mentioning this with the subject heading "Will Work For Tetlas". Feel free to attach a resume. Obviously, if you already have a job, you wouldn't want to have some of your pay replaced by Tetlas. On the other hand, if you don't have a job, getting one that pays partly in tetlas and partly in regular money is a lot better than not having a job at all
