Andy,
Instead of Quicken-type checks which are pricy, there are two alternatives, one
costing very little more than wallet checks.
1. Most banks sell a business-sized check in a check-book. This check is almost
as big as a business envelope. It usually does not have a stub to tear off. Its
fields are just farther apart. This check option allows you to keep track of
check number yourself because remaining checks stay in the book.
2. A more costly, but neat, option is the large print, raised-line check. This
is the same size as the business check above, but has raised lines and raised
print. Money Talks supports this as well. These checks are in a book. Most
banks have them, but they don't know it until you go through the bank's big
book of check types and styles with them ― and then they are amazed to find it
there. It is a more expensive option, though.
Personally, I don't like the 3-to-a-page checks because I have to keep track of
partial pages of checks when I write only one. However, a number of people,
some on this list, find such checks to work well.
