An unidentified man buys tomatoes for 20 billion Zimbabwe dolllars each in Harare, Wednesday, July 23, 2008. Amid Zimbabwe's mind-boggling hyper inflation, a new 100 billion dollar bank note has more value as a novelty item on eBay than on the streets of the capital. The note, launched this week, is worth enough to buy a loaf of bread, if you can find one on Zimbabwe's depleted store shelves. A hundred billion dollars is worth US$5 at the official rate, US$1 at the black market rate, but just 30 U.S. cents in a transfer because by the time the funds are processed the Zimbabwe currency can be expected to be worth a lot less.
