s/o how often do you use checks?

I write 2 checks a week, one to the babysitter and the other for the collection basket at church.  Everything else is done electronically.  Once in a great while, I won't have my debit card with me at the grocery store (I either gave it to DH or left it in a pants pocket) so I will have to write a check.  When this happens, I find myself apologizing profusely to those around me for having to write a check and take up everyone's time.

Do you use checks?

    I have to write out a check each week for daycare.  I also write out a check each month to church for collection.  And then there's random checks that get written out from time to time.  For example, we had to write out a check last month to the tree trimmers when they cut down a dead tree in our front yard.  I don't even carry checks in my purse.  They stay at home in my desk.

    We pay our rent and car payment via check because electronic isn't offered for either.  Those are the only two we write most months.

    We don't even own a checkbook. I pay everything online or with debit card or cash.

    1 or 2 a month, if that.  All of our regular bills are paid online and we use our debit card for everything else.  I don't even know where our checkbook is....
