I am old fashioned and pay all of my bills  by check. Once in awhile I will use my debit card out of town, and my house payment is auto pay along with dad's  phone bill, I have a couple of things happen while using my  debit card so am very careful about where I use it.  Use my credit card to  order on-line or my paypal .

I don't even have checks on hand.  I use cash or debit card to pay bills or make purchases.

I do not carry checks with me and can't remember the last time I used one.  I probably wouldn't even remember how to fill one out!  I actually feel like I'm doing something wrong if I pay with cash or a check because I don't get to take advantage of the benefits I would get if using a credit card.  That's crazy!  I can remember the first time I ever heard of a little plastic credit card and how it worked.  It sounded like science fiction, and I was amazed to hear that this type of payment was going to be a "real" thing!

I still use checks, mostly when paying for things at my son's school.

There are still a couple of places I either pay by check or cash, small business my hairdresser.  It is amazing the fees a small business gets hit with for credit cards.  I also have a personal issue with using a card for less than $5.  I was behind a lady in a store today buying a $2.00 bag of chips with a card.

I write checks for things I cannot pay online and for several bills.  I also use them in birthday cards.

I only use Checks to pay our Hired Help. I never keep any Cash on hand to pay them. I have to be able to keep track of their earnings. Other than paying our Help with Checks, I do not use them for any other reason. I always use my Debit Card for everything else. :)
