To the orgers who still write checks.... ....it's okay to start using your debit card now. I know you have it sitting there with the activation sticker still stuck to it. Also, go ahead and throw away that 8 track... | |

I saw a lady take out her checkbook this week and it blew me away. I forgot that is still a legit way of paying for things. | |

LMFAO, there was a nice right up in Laptop mag about how they are going to start having it incorporated into our cell phones. All you'll have to do is swipe your cell phone by a terminal to pay for all sorts of things. It's common in asia. I'm looking forward to it.
I think I still have the same checks from when I opened my account when my ex wife and I split. lol | |

Some places don't have debit machines it's too expensive to maintain, so they want cash or cheque. Ohh purple joy oh purple bliss oh purple rapture! REAL MUSIC by REAL MUSICIANS - Prince "I kind of wish there was a reason for Prince to make the site crash more" ~~ Ben |

Yes, I still mail in bills & use stamps But you have an account on the ORG!!! You should be all over the internet! I absolutely HATE writing checks... I'm all about paying my stuff on the net or with sexual favors... As a side note, anytime I have to write a check to a friend for something, I ALWAYS put something dirty and inappropriate in the memo section... you should try that - it's hella funny... | |

Well I don't do EVERYTHING the old fashioned way, about half of my stuff is automatic from my account. But I still deal w/ paper. I like paper. It's easier to track things if something goes wrong...

I think See, I find it easier to track on the internets.... then again, I'm a slob and I always lose papers, etc... so, I guess if you're organized, the check writing thing might be helpful.... All I know is that I LOOOOOVE online banking, etc. If I never had to write a check again, I'd be a happy man.... Oh - for those of you who use debit cards, are you one of the loons who updates your check registry every time you make a purchase with it? My mom does that... | |

i still have to write checks for rent, but other than that i never use 'em. i hate checks. i'd rather have money debited straight from my account or from my credit card when i have to make a payment of some kind. i don't like waiting for someone to piddlefart around before they decide to cash my check. | |

Many places I used to write checks out don't even accept them anymore. Debit cards, credit cards, or cash nowadays. | |
