Boat storage rent is about the only thing I still use checks for.

I was just at the grocery and the hold up was this women writing a check. Do you still write checks at places like the grocery store or pharmacy?

No.

But I might consider it for businesses that charge an additional service fee for using a credit card.

About once every few years and it pisses me off because I have to find the checkbook again.

About the only time I write a check is for our yard crew or if my daughter needs something at school like class fees or something.

Haven't written a check in at least 15 years.

If someplace requires a paper check I get online and do it via bank payment and the bank sends them a check

Yes, I write checks for kids’ stuff like dancing school & orthodontist bc I refuse to pay the fee and they don’t have EFT.

I did a couple summers ago when that's all I could do. Some jackass stole my wallet after it accidentally fell out of my back pocket after I got my phone out of there at Walmart.
