Have you ever used Traveler Checks ? Yes. Years ago that's all we used. The tellers used to try to charge us for them and we had to make them check our account type because we didn't pay for them. We still don't pay for any services. The advantage of having an account at the same bank for 40 years.


Just for Fun:

When you just don't feel like cooking, what is your
"go to" meal solution ? Cheese, crackers and sausage. Quiznos. Papa Johns delivery. These are the most common.
