...the darnedest things happen.  I got a call from Jones County Garbage this morning.  They got my check for $350. dollars and asked if I wanted them to post it.  I have been paying a month at a time, writing a check for $13.50 putting a stamp on the envelope and sending it.  It's a PITA to write this little check and send it off every month so I decided to pay for 10 months.

The who called said she was asking because once a lady accidentally wrote a check for the balance she had in her check book, and an another lady sent them the amount she owed on her power bill.  Can you imagine a company calling to make sure you hadn't made a mistake before they took your money.  That has never happened to me before. 
Always move forward. Never look back.

I'm confused....10 X $13.50= $135.00..........vs     $350??

I hit the wrong keys.  I sent $135.
