In my life time cheques will never go out of date, its still the safest way to buy something the only problem it takes time to clear.

Lots of Asda and Tesco stores no longer accept payment by cheque, due to the higher risk of fraud. Dunno if this is the policy in other big chains, as I only do my grocery shop at those two stores. Cheques are on the way out, I'm afraid :nervous
