Family bartering

My Mom and I have made several swaps over the years that were to both our advantage. A china hutch for a bedroom set, a dresser for living room tables, etc. Now Mom is planning to move and we've agreed to swap her freezer for my making curtains for her new apartment. It works out well for both of us since neither likes to spend a lot of money unnecessarily.

I'm just curious whether other families do this or if we're unique in this.
