@beckyb1012  - Don't you - or anyone else that pays all their bills with a check - worry about a payment getting "lost in the mail" and being late?  Paying online insures your payment gets credited immediately.

Re: What do you still do the old fashion way?

I still use my landline to make and receive calls.  I have 2 cell phones but I just don't care about them.  I still pay bills using checks.  I probably do most things the old fashion way because I like my old ways and am used to doing things the way I always have!!!!

Still set my hair in rollers, daily

 

write in cursive

 

do math on most stuff, in my head

 

use a land line (have a cell)

 

Write letters, send cards once in awhile, let relatives know about other family members, who aren't in touch with other family members. 

 

watch old t.v. shows, movies.

 

Still listen to the "golden oldies"

Say a prayer before dinner. I don’t see/hear it much anymore, even at Thanksgiving.

Re: What do you still do the old fashion way?

I have a landline and a cell phone. The landline is bundled with my internet, so unless I change that, I need the landline. 

 

I write maybe one check every couple months, sometimes at the grocery store sometimes if  a website down when I need to pay to bill. Otherwise, all my bills are done online. Automatically credited and don't have to worry about the check being late. 

 

Those are the only old fashioned things I do.
