Dread the thought of having to write checks again for each retail purchasebut I will once my bank starts charging monthly fee to use my debit card
some banks already have started with the fee so figure is just a matter of time before all do
Well, if you insist on writing checks for everything, please be respectful of those behind you. Have your check written out, ID ready and record the entry when you get in the car. It is disrespectful to waste others time when the banks have given you a safe and easy way to do transactions.
No carbon paper here, but we still have the checks that make duplicates, too. Most people in my area use them. They're great.
That was rude.
If you have so little self control that you cannot allow yourself enough time in the grocery store not to freak out about someone taking 30 seconds to write a check or record it in their register, then you probably don't have very good time manangement skills.If you have so little self control and run your balance so close to the overdraft line that you can only keep track by immediately needing to record a check in a paper register and hold up a line of people in the grocery you probably don't have very good math skills. I keep track of my finanaces online and before going out I check my balance in my electronic register at home and know about how much is there. I don't hold up a line of people while on a shopping trip by painfully writing a check and then writing in an ancient check register. Hold onto your debit receipts and subtract them when you get home rather than being selfish by holding up everyone else.
Just because you don't value your time, doesn't mean that I don't value mine. Since you seem to have so much free time to waste, maybe you could research how a debit card works and understand that it is safe and efficient. It is also cheaper and wastes less resources.
My self control and time management skills have nothing do with this siutation. It is rude of a person who intentionally uses a method that wastes everyone's time. You waste the time of those behind you, the cashier who must process it, the store owner who now has to go to the bank and deposit, the bank employee who must handle it, etc. Debits work and are much more efficient. If you want to be inefficient do it on your own time, not mine.
Most people these days have very little free time and I don't appreciate when someone decides that they want to take valuable resources from others because they refuse to use a proven efficient method.

You saw the light that motorized vehicles are more efficient than a horse buggy, why can't you see the benefits of the debit card?
