I honestly can't remember the last time I wrote a check. It was at least 18 months ago. Though every once in a while my wife will write one for a school thingy for the kids. I have not ordered checks in at least 4 years. The checks we currently are using still have our old address on them and we moved years ago!

The last time I actually wrote a check to pay for something in a store was in the early 90's ... and that was only because I was living in Scotland. They don't believe in adopting new technology.
