Default Question on buying checks

I need to buy some checks for my new personal account, and will have to buy more for our joint account soon, too.

I'm tired of trying to remember whether I ever used certain check printers, to get those special new customer prices. I like the idea of Wal-Mart and checkworks.com because they have the same flat price for everyone, whether you're new or a returning customer. I'm sure Wal-Mart is legitimate, but their selection is very small. Checkworks has more choices, but their website doesn't look as professional as some of the other ones and it makes me wonder if they're legit.

Any reviews on either one?

Thanks!

I don't buy many checks anymore (I use online bill pay plus I get free checks from my bank), but I've had good success with Checks in the Mail. They are reasonably priced and have a great selection.

I have been using checkworks.com for a while now. I've never had any problems and I've recommended it to all my friends & family...the prices are cheaper than my bank and I love choosing a new design each time I order...

I've had success with www.checksunlimited.com as well.

If you belong to any wholesale clubs, you may want to find out if they offer checks. BJ's DOES:

www.bjschecks.com ( I actually don't see anything on the site that states you must be a member...)

Good luck ~
