This is a blast from the past, as far as I'm concerned. We were talking about something and the subject of travelers' checks came up. And I suddenly realized you never hear or think about travelers' checks anymore.
What was it? Debit cards or electronic checks or credit cards that did them in? Or are they not done in yet, but still going strong?
I know we used to get travelers' checks when we went places. Because the places you went to wouldn't want to accept a check from people out of state. And if you took too much cash and someone stole it, then you were out.
So we would go to the bank and buy these checks. They had some particular rule about signing them that you had to do to use them, which I don't remember now.
Boy Leg's comin', hide your heart, girl
