Dang, should be outlawed here too!

cute, yes........found a ton of shoplifted chocolate under her little brothers pram mattress.....she told me she took chocolate instead of sweets, as sweets are a baby choking hazard...cute yes.

I am really surprised checks are accepted to buy groceries.

USA has check cashing places..so used more commonly, dont have those here, funny how things differ....

I use checks sometimes, to pay contractors, commonly accepted....

they are becoming obsolete in a few years I heard....

There's a ton of "loan" places here, some with outrages fees and interest rates, I would rather borrow from a loan-shark, they have more morals!

tell them you don't take checks but you will take moneygram or western union
