Including some spare change I added to the account, I've saved $7.35 toward a B share (which closed today at $4,089!).

Yup, over the course of 2 months, she received 3 or 4 checks all for the grand total of a penny. She asked me if she should cash them and I told her yes, absolutely. She didn't have the courage to cash a check for a penny in front of a teller so she deposited the penny checks in her atm but 35 cents is like a fortune compared to what she got.

I have ripped up checks like that in the past but not anymore. It all adds up, I probably would have at least $5 more in my savings by now! I like your stance!

To this day I don't know why they needed to send me a 10 cent check. I have an account there, why didn't they just drop it in there? Instead, the next trip to the bank, I deposited it into my bank account and felt extremely cheap doing so. I'm not sure it was worth the time to write the figure on my deposit slip and sign the back.

Awesome. I cash my checks too - pretty much regardless of how much they are worth, but I usually deposit them by mail and I wait until I have a few. Thankfully my bank sends me prepaid envelopes to do so. The kicker is - is costs the insurance company and the bank more to process the check than the check is worth. Oh well! LOL. Awesome.

"The credit meltdown took out Citibank!" :) That being said, I'd cash it too. But I would probably wait til I got another check and cash them together. But I get lots of random little survey checks so I wouldn't have to wait long. :) I love it! “The credit meltdown took out Citibank!” :)
