I spent a lot of time writing to the various merchants who got burned by the ass. Didn't end up costing me any actual $$ (from the checks anyway) but it was an enormous hassle. These days it's plastic and cash for me in stores, checks at home for mailing.
Ahh I see, it would get a folder attached to the checkbook to keep the receipts.

My business is set up differently. I just take the money needed to do whatever project I'm doing and deposit it in the checkbook, than pay for everything with it. This way I can keep accurite track of what I spent on a house, and for what.
