Have Some Fun with Garfield Personal Checks

By Alan Plastin

Like Garfield, do you dread Monday mornings? Does taking out your checkbook give you anxiety? Well, if you're a fan of the lovable, and sometimes surly, big orange cat then carrying Garfield checks will always give you a smile when you take out that checkbook. Plus, it's not as expensive as you might think, not thanks to the Internet.

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.

Garfield's abhorrence of Monday mornings, his laziness, his obsessive love of eating, and his distaste of diets are some of the common themes that can be found within the comic strips. Both children and adults are able to enjoy the humor, somewhat due to the fact that the storylines are not political in nature and instead center on the daily humor that life can bring.

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 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. - 29968
