Nothing annoys me more as well.  Who the heck still writes checks?  What&amp;#39;s even worse is the check writer who stands in line for five minutes, waits for the items to be rung up and then starts writing the check.  

I have a friend who once lived in Quincy, IL.  He used to say that you know you are under a lot of stress when you&amp;#39;ve eaten the bag of Oreos while you are aiting in line to check out.  Teh joke is that Quincy is so small that you rarely have to wait inline.&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: checks</title><link>https://community.usms.org/thread/43874?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Thu, 15 Jun 2006 09:28:29 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">3187ac58-ba85-4314-b79a-c45cd885e09a:8c682fca-611c-4d8f-a5e1-764692a72e7b</guid><dc:creator>aquageek</dc:creator><description>Originally posted by knelson 
When are grocery stores going to stop taking checks?  Doesn&amp;#39;t everyone have a debit card by now?  I hate when I&amp;#39;m in line behind someone that pulls out a checkbook to pay for their groceries :(

I write at least 12 per year since that&amp;#39;s how I pay for my Masters team.
