Two inhabitants of Chelm, Berl and Schmerl, buy in the city a jug of genever and decide to sell it exclusively for cash. On the road, going home, Schmerl gets thirsty and says: "I wouldn't mind to have a little genever. I'll pay of course, here is a nickel." Berl agrees. A little while later, he also is thirsty. He pays a nickel and drinks. It is a hot day, both are thirsty and the nickel switches owners frequently. When they arrive in Chelm at night, the jug is empty.
"How was business?" asks a bystander.
"Wonderful!" they both assure him, "Everything sold in one day, and paid for in cash!"
