Zimbabwe introduces 10 billion dollar banknote
Zimbabwe's central bank has introduced a 10 billion Zimbabwe dollar banknote, worth $20 on the black market, to try to ease desperate cash shortages, state-run media said on Friday.


Prices are doubling every day and food and fuel are in short supply in Zimbabwe. A cholera epidemic has killed more than 1,100 people and a deadlock between President Robert Mugabe and the opposition has put hopes of ending the crisis on hold.

Hyper-inflation has forced the central bank to continue to unveil new banknotes which quickly become almost worthless.

New Z$1 billion and Z$5 billion notes were also put into circulation and the monthly cash withdrawal limit was increased fivefold to Z$10 billion.

How could you survive with 9.3 million? It costs like 100 million Z dollars for like two or three canned tomatoes or something (saw it on BBC news).
