 And there's this old custom where people would pay for something by pulling out, get this, a booklet of paper slips, usually six by two and three quarter inches. They'd write down the store, write in the numerals, then again as narrative the amount, look up and then list the date, sign the thing and rip it out of the booklet. I wanted to be sure you saw confirmation over the holiday weekend that Target stores will no longer accept payment by check starting in one week. Whole Foods and Aldi already turn up their noses to checks. They are happy for you to tap, swipe or insert.
