re: How often do you write personal checks?

I only had to do it for daycare but now the new school we are at let's you do it online so essentially never now.

Once a month I write a check, take a photo of it, send it to bank to transfer money.

Thanks, Dad! Keep 'em coming!

Mom says, "Hey!"

Kids piano teacher....she is a hold out


She actually had me rewrite a check bcause she didn't think the bank would take it as written

I write them to the vet. My check register is always to the vet.

Only for my sons school.

His school is probably the only one in all of America that doesn’t have any sort of online payment system….

Can’t remember the last time I did.

It must have been to some home remodeling company. So 10 years ago is my guess.

Seems like most of those small business owners are adapting and using an e-check host site with lower fees than credit cards.

I still have no idea why people still need to go into brick and mortar banks. The last time I did was about 18 years ago when I bought a new house.

Last time I used an ATM was about 15 years ago when I unknowingly went to a cash only restaurant. They said they didn’t want to pass credit card fees on to their customers. I asked them how much they made from the ATM fees from their customers who have to use their ATM inside the restaurant. They avoided the question by claiming it was a “private vendor”.

I felt obligated to tell the owner that I would use the bank ATM a block away because I would not support his effort to make more money off his customers using ATMs, nor would I help subsidize his tax avoidance scheme. The guy’s restaurant closed a year later. My prayers were answered.

I have the bank cut a Cashier’s check for taxes, etc.

I have gotten a USPS money order for a couple of things over the past decade.

I have a checkbook but I haven’t written a check in at least 10 years.

Just sent one to our beloved Department Of Revenue.
