Cost of your blank personal checks.

[Dave Lehnert]

I know, "Who writes personal checks" But sometimes that's the only option.

It has been years since I ordered personal checks from the bank. I logged on to my account and started seeing prices like 25 blank checks for $30.00 Two boxes of blank checks just over $90.00
I have no idea what I paid before but know it was not anything close to what I am seeing. I asked family and coworkers and they all said they did not know. They just ordered them and had their account billed.

What are you paying for blank checks from your bank? If you don't know, you better look next time.

The last time we bought checks they weren't that expensive. This was at a time when we still paid a lot of bills every month by check. We bought 800 checks or 4 boxes. We are still using them even though it getting to be 10 years since we moved from California to Washington.

It looks like they are currently having a deal:

Our current checks have what looks like a child drew them with a crayon. When our son was young we would tell people he designed them. He would always say, "no I didn't." When we stopped saying that and folks commented on them he would then say, "I drew them."

At one time we used a check style that was a fairly plain background with the word "MONEY" in very large letters across the face. People would look at the check and kind of zombie like say, "okay, thank you" and wouldn't even ask for an ID. That kind of scared us at the thought of how subliminal they were and what would happen if someone got a hold of a few of them.

Last time we ordered checks (Credit Union) we paid $20.47 for a box of 100.

I just got 120 checks for $7.40 from my credit union, but it is a new account. I usually order checks online as financial institutions most often charge an arm and a leg.

Last time I ordered checks (within the last year) the basic checks were free. You could customize them, and that looked like it could get expensive quickly.

[Brian Henderson]

Honestly, we don't use checks. The last time we ordered checks was over a decade ago and we still have multiple decades to go. We use maybe 5 checks a year.

Check out local credit unions. I have a checking account with one but use their credit/debit card. Not only is it free but they pay me interest on the balance. If I use the credit/debit card 12 times per month they pay me higher interest on the balance up to $25K.
Once you get used to using a card you'll probably never go back to checks. It's very convenient.
My wife still writes checks. Refuses to try the card, sooo, I have to buy more things to get the higher interest.

[Jim Becker]

My checks are free from TDBank. I only need to pay a small secure shipping fee.

[Greg R Bradley]

$22.40 for a box that is about 100. I will probably still have plenty when checks cease to exist.

[Charlie Velasquez]

We paid about $7 for 200 maybe 4-5 years ago. We still have 125+ left.

[David Helm]

My credit union gives me checks free of charge. That also includes shipping charges (none). All I had to do was show that I was on Social Security.

The last time I ordered checks I checked around and ,while I don't remember exactly what they cost , I found that Walmart was the least expensive.

[Neil Gaskin]

I've found Costco to be very reasonable

[Ed Labadie]

Mine are always free thru Chase......just got a new box 2 weeks ago.

My checks are free also. Standard check with name. Who needs birds and flowers on a check. I pay all bills with checks. I do not trust internet for anything. Have never been burned or lost check. Been doing it for over 50 years. I pay cash at registers and only use credit when item is very large. Old school still works and we need to get back to it.

Why don't you all pay in Bitcoin.
