I write checks out as money gifts for young folks in family graduating, getting married, baby shower, etc.

I use checks for a few things such as church and gifts to my Godkids.

Occasionally. If it's something that has to be paid by check. But I prefer not to use them just cuz they're inconvenient. Lol

Yes, I know it's a thing of the pass but it works for me; I keep better records that way.

Occasionally we still write checks, for mailing certain bills.

Yes and I dont know why!  I guess I feel as though I can keep better track of my money this way.  I would be dangerous with a debit card!

I do write checks for some of my bills that I have to mail out.  Most of the time I use my debit card when I make my purchases.

I think I wrote out one check in 2018.  I have gotten away from writing checks.  It's strange when I see someone writing out one.

I have autopay for the bills. I write once yeack a year to the local historical society. All my other historical societies are lifetime memberships but the local one started up after I was no longer working so I couldn't afford lifetime.

Hubby writes one check a month from the joint account...to receive money from his Social Security. He has a separate account that he write his 2 separate checks out for his bills every month.

   Call me old-fashion: I love to use paper checks.
   Why? Accounting ledgers do not lie. It is all in the books.
   Computers do lie with so many glitches...it is difficult
    to locate where the errors are.

Very rarely do I write checks.  I may only write 5 or so a year.  Most things I pay online or have auto withdraw from my account.

I have only one place I frequent that takes only checks or cash and that is my hairdresser. If it weren't for her, I wouldn't need them at all for anything.
