My water, sewer and electricity are on one bill that is paid 4 blocks from my house. My rent is paid about 8 blocks from my house. My cable company is about a mile from me and the phone and gas bills are on line. So the majority of my stuff gets paid by me personally. I have no other bills, no loans, no credit cards no nothing. I use a debit card and cash. I have a checking account that is used once a month for rent and that's it. I am so under the radar (from most people) that I'm almost invisible. Oh yeah, I have 2 grocery stores within walking distance but I drive there because it's hard to carry a dozen bags and walk....and I live 8/10 of a mile from where I work. I have a 200 Mercury Grand Mal Seizure that I put about 30 bucks of gas in it a month.

There you go...Max Murdoc in a nut shell.

I pay everything online except my rent payment. I have to drive way, way across town once a month to pay for that, which irritates me to no end.

I too pay all my bills on line except for my rent, and to pay that all I do is walk down stairs and slip my check under my landlords door!

Half my (very few) bills are paid by old fashioned check & mail, while a couple others are automatic payment. There are some that I like to look at [i]personally[/i] before I pay them.

Almost everything gets paid through the bank's Billpay -- it's free and you just schedule the day you want the payment there, very easy to do.

Sometimes I pay my photo assistants through Billpay and the bank mails the check so it doesn't even cost me to write the check or mail it.

I pay everything in cash, face to face, with a look in the eye.

I pay via phone, web or check. It all depends on how close I am to the due date. I'm not entirely anxious to move us ever close to a cashless society (which seems to be the way this is all going) and I do not have complete confidence in the current system of online payments.

I have some bills that are automatic withdrawal and the rest I pay online.

A mixture, really. I pay the rent and utilities in person and the main ones are either online, in the bank or on the phone.
