I JUST round off because when I "pay" my bills, I always get check book to straight dollars, and no cents, less likely to have an oops moment and loose my mind wondering how did I goof up check book balance. JUST old Military Habit. Just like overseas, WE never used pennies. All prices were rounded up/down to the next $.05 amount to even amounts so no need for pennies. I kinda like that idea, wish they do here since it costs way to much to make pennies ne way. Just a thought, but then I am a BOIRD.
Whats a check book?

I know you are being tongue in cheek, which is ahhhhhhh, funny. But for your benefit, just in case: :banghead::33::anitoof:

What is checkbook used for?


What Is a Checkbook? A checkbook is a folder or small book containing preprinted paper instruments issued to checking account holders and used to pay for goods or services. A checkbook contains sequentially numbered checks that account holders can use as a bill of exchange.

I stay spot on but always even out any amount ASAP to a round number, like pay a bill ove by the amount of "cents" to round checkbook.

I haven't written a cheque in years, everything goes on my credit card and it auto pays the full balance out of my account every month. Look at the statement, make sure all charges are yours. Done deal.

Even when I did write cheques I never kept a cheque book. As long as all the cheques that went through the account were mine, checked the statement, the account absolutely had to balance. Never saw the point in the whole balance the cheque book exercise.

BOIRD just old school, LOL, I write very few checks, but use checkbook to record all like Bill Pay items so balance account. I use my CC's, and then immediately next day go into bank account and Bill Pay the CC balance I just incurred, as I never keep a CC balance longer than a month.

Then thats what that older lady was doing at the grocery store the other day. Man she had the whole line held up. When they finished scanning her groceries, she had to put her purse up on the counter, dig through it, get out this book thing, find a pen, write down a bunch of stuff, tear something out of it, then dig in her wallet and find her drivers license, then they wanted her phone number, had to call a manager over to scribble something on the paper that she gave them and then flip to another section in her book and write something else down. Then she had to put all of that stuff back in her purse. ;) Learn something new everyday !!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am just poking Sir. Dont flame me.

I used a check book for a while
My rent was due on the 15th of each month
I wrote the rent check when due & on the first, i looked at my monthly bank statement, i did not bother to look at the charges, just the balance.
So the following 15th, i wrote another rent check, the landlord was irritated with me, because the check did not clear.
The landlord's wife had sat on the previous months check & the 2nd check was something like $15 short & the bank did not allow the shortage to be taken out of the Over Draft funds.

I have not written a check since then, the landlord insisted on Cashiers Checks or Cash after that.
More recently, he has insisted on Only Cash, he is building a house in the Philippines & i think he is hiding some of his income.

I am not complaining, i am paying about $400 less than the newer residence :)
