: Yea, well......I don't fumble around in the bottom of my purse looking 
: for pennies, that is usually reserved for *Females*, such as yourself.

: And, *why* may I ask, are you agitated over the comments about checks?  
: You sound as if you are trying to defending someone?

I can understand and tolerate elderly people taking more time than usual
to find change BUT, it is usually ditzy women who are the offenders.
LADIES: it is legal to fill out as much as possible of the check AHEAD of
time. So WHAT if it is signed...you have already made it payable to the
store. Therefore, no worry about being mugged or otherwise losing the
check.
