Sometimes. I tend to pay for services and my church donations with a paper check.

I do too for my donations; it's easier to following up...

Check your account at least daily. I do, and it's kept me on top so far..

I agree, I'm in there minimum once a week. I like the 'bill pay' function most, very convenient.

Checks do provide a good trail to follow, that's for sure.

Oh sure I do - some companies want to charge you for an electronic check so I mail them one. I think eventually it will all be electronic with firms of a certain size but right now - about 50/50
