Yeah, me too. Just burning up the supply.
I use it for paying rent. The stamp is cheaper than whatever transaction fee there is for the online service my landlord uses.

My Mom. She's that little old lady at the grocery store holding everyone up.

Skippy PB (because a toasted english muffin and Skippy is absolutely deluxe),
and this little old lady was in line ahead of me with her cart full to bursting,
trying to puzzle out writing a GD check.
I'm a patient person but there are limits.
My Mom tried to use her card once and she accidentally used her credit card instead of her debit card. Now did this matter at all? No, but this incident has kept her from using a card ever since.

I use checks once in a while but I track my money by checking my bank app, so it screws with that a bit. No idea when someone will cash a check.

Do succulents have health benefits or something? The person who shares my desk overnights asked if I'd mind if she brought one in. I don't really care... but this thing's not pretty. I don't see the appeal, but there may be more to it than I know.
