2.5% of a $300 utility bill (common in winter) is $7.50
checks are cheap (if you order the basic kind) and i pay no bank fees. say $1 all included?
BUT ANYWAY.
a funny story: the cunts at my local utility office will CHARGE YOU for taking your cash. but they'll take a check at no extra charge. why? don't ask me why people are this stupid. they are.
