Think of it like giving his customers another way to pay. It's not like drug dealers give you the option of Interact or Credit card, so they had to think outside the box (of detergent that is).

"Dude, if you want a hit of acid, it is 50 bucks, or 4 chickens, 6 bottles of Tide, 12 Tide-to-Go pens, 22 boxes of Ritz Crackers or 16 jars of peanut butter. If you want to convert Tide-to-Go pens into bottles of Tide, the exchange rate is 3;1. Don't give me that look, this isn't a fracking charity I am running here"
