my grandmother sent me a check for 10 bucks for my birthday and it was a nice thought, but she just couldn’t understand why i didn’t cash it and kept asking me about it for years, reluctant, apparently, to believe my explanation. at the time in japan it would’ve cost me much more in fees than 10 bucks to cash it. probably hasn’t changed much now, but granny’s been gone for a while and won’t be sending me any more checks…
