I don't have a cheque book
yes it's been a year already! Can you believe it!? My anniversary is June 5th. Thanks for asking!!!Originally Posted by caprice
Totally off topic, when is your anniversary? Has it been a year yet?
Yup that's pretty much the case, as long as whatever store you are in takes personal checks. It's kind of annoying though to be on the express line in the supermarket and have the person in front of you write a check for $6 worth of groceries, lol.Originally Posted by Loveysmummy
Is it true that Americans can write a check/cheque (we spell it en francais) for anything?Even a pack of gum or gas or whatever? An American told me this once and I couldn't believe it!! We can't do this here. People usually only use checks/ques for bills.
Yes, it's true, although you usually don't want to write one for a very small amount as it's not cost effective. And there are some places that don't accept checks, like restaurants, liquor stores, and many gas stations. There are more places that don't accept them as time goes by.Originally Posted by Loveysmummy

My checkbook hasn't been out of the house, in at least 4 years. It is so much simpler to use my debit card and, if I need cash, I hit the ATM or get cash back at WalMart or the grocery store.
Every payday, I write Bill a check for my share of the household expenses and twice a year, I send one to Pima Animal Care for dog licenses (can't do that online yet). My Avon lady gets paid by check, too.
i ordered mine online from checks unlimited, not from the bank. you give them the appropriate numbers & info, & they print the checks & send them to you. can you not do that?Originally Posted by KitEKats4Eva!
Awww you can't get cheques like that here .... all of ours (as far as I know, anyway) are just the standard bank ones. How boring!!
