Rarely. Up until 2 years ago I had to pay my mortgage with a check, but that was a Habitat for Humanity thing. Not like they’re funded for shit. It’s become strange to see someone paying with paper at a grocery store.
We still “pay by check” for a lot of things online as there’s usually no extra charge. It’s a way to dodge credit card fees, for both parties.
