Let Garfield and Company Redefine Your Personal Checks

By Alan Plastin

Are you a fan of Garfield, John, and Odie? Are you tired of your plain old boring personal bank checks? Are you afraid that purchasing interesting looking checks will be not only costly but time consuming as well? It's not as expensive as you might think, now thanks to the Internet. If you're a fan of Garfield and his friends, you can even carry Garfield-inspired checks. Your checkbook will never be dull again.

Created in 1978 by Jim Davis, Garfield is the world's most syndicated comic strip. Everyone around the world is familiar with Garfield and his pals. The comic strip centers on the life and adventures of Garfield, a large orange, and sometimes lazy, cat as well as his owner Jon and Jon's dog, Odie.

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 the owner of Garfield and Odie. He is generally portrayed as being somewhat geeky, although good hearted. Jon's inability to find a date is an on-running joke, as are his eccentric habits such as stamp collecting and measuring his toenails. According to Garfield, he also has questioning taste in fashion as well.

Odie is an amiable yellow dog that is mostly shown to be naive, but endearing. However, his naivete could be an act since sometimes when Jon and Garfield are gone Odie can be seen watching educational programs on television and reading. Although Garfield usually gets the better of Odie, the two do seem to share a friendship with 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 charming and cheery, just like the comic strip. You can even find coordinating address labels and a matching checkbook cover to go with them in order to complete your Garfield collection. No matter how much anxiety your finances might give you, you won't be able to help but smile when you write out a Garfield check.

Ordering checks online is simple and quick and takes the task out of going to your local bank. You just need to know your routing number and checking account number to get started. These will be printed directly onto the checks themselves. You can typically expect to receive the checks in around 3-5 days, which might even be faster than your bank got them to you in the past. - 2361
