Buying Stuff On Line
So Saturday I was working and realized I was out of business checks. So I went on line and found the ones I wanted, put in my order and they arrived today. I opened the box and these checks are hugh and they don't even fit in my check book. They are so big my employees will feel like they have won a golf tournament every time they get paid. I'm not even sure if the bank will accept them. So I call the place and they said too bad as they had their sizes listed. What are some of your experiences buying stuff on line.

Re: Buying Stuff On Line
I usually read the descriptions of what I'm buying. Never really had an issue.

Re: Buying Stuff On Line
I never have a problem getting things online. I go to Amazon and Cheaper Than Dirt. I use paypal from my account and check it like a hawk.

Re: Buying Stuff On Line
I saw the three checks to a page design with duplicates and never really thought about the size of the checks. I figure it was like papper and they use a standard size. I didn't know I was buying checks for a golf tournament.

Re: Buying Stuff On Line
Just think of the Tiger Woods comercial when he ask the clerk do you accept checks and he holds up one of those big checks.

I love to buy one of these to celebrate my parents B-Day gift to me each year. They always send a card with $20 in it. I like to take a picture of me holding a giant check written out for $20 and send it to the rest of my family as a joke. Why they send me $20 is beyond me...I am 36 have a career etc...just a card will do.
