Let Garfield and Company Redefine Your Personal Checks

By Alan Plastin

Do you find yourself commiserating a lot with Garfield when it comes to Monday mornings and your routine? Do you wish that you had more interesting looking personal bank checks? Well, if you're a fan of the endearing, and sometimes gruff, big orange cat then carrying Garfield checks in your checkbook will always give you a reason to smile-even when it comes to your finances.

Garfield is a comic strip that was created by Jim Davis in 1978. It chronicles the life and adventures of Garfield, his owner Jon, and Odie, Jon's dog. According to the Guinness Book of World Records, it is also the world's most syndicated comic strip.

Some of the things that the comic strip focuses on are Garfield's repulsion to diets, his lethargy, his love of all things food, and his detestation of Mondays. Since the comic strip is not political in nature, but rather focuses on the humor of daily life, both children and adults are able to enjoy his antics.

Jon is Garfield and Odie's owner and is usually portrayed as a nice, if somewhat geeky, character. He has eccentric habits such as stamp collecting and dubious fashion taste, according to Garfield. Some of the jokes in the comic strip focus on Jon's inability to garner a date.

Odie is a yellow dog that is usually shown to be nave, but lovable. Sometimes, when Garfield and Jon are out of the house, Odie can be seen reading large novels and watching educational television. Garfield often gets the better of him, although the two do share an affinity for one another.

Today, if you're a fan of Garfield and Company, then you can purchase Garfield personal bank checks at a fraction of the cost that you might have paid at your bank by ordering online. When you use a reputable site you can save as much as 50% off the cost that you might have paid in the past. Plus, you will have a larger multitude of checks to select from, too.

The Garfield checks are engaging and cheerful just like the comic strip itself. You can even get coordinating address labels and a matching checkbook cover to go with your checks if you'd like. It will be hard not to smile when you write a check over a picture of Garfield, no matter how much anxiety the idea of your finances usually gives you.

Purchasing checks online is easy and fast and takes the chore out of going to your local bank. You just need to have your routing number and checking account number on hand to get started. These will be printed directly onto the checks themselves. You can normally expect to get the checks in the mail in around 3-5 days, which might even be sooner than your bank could have gotten them to you. - 29967
