Question
I sell ice cream from a truck on Fridays, and people owe me money for what they bought. Do I also need to make a Prozbul, or is it only for those who actually lent money, and not for those who gave ice cream on credit?
Answer
If the purchase in the store was on credit, the debt is not canceled. However, some say it is considered like a loan, and the debt is canceled. Therefore, it is advisable to make a Prozbul so that according to all opinions, you can collect the debts.
