costing 38 cents for postage, plus printing, plus envelope, and effort.....

We have to do the same thing some times too. Legally we're required to send the check to the customer, and send a copy of the check to the state.

Carry the check around with you and the next time a panhandler asks you for spare change endorse the back of the check and hand it to him.

knowing CVS and their paper trails (ie. receipts), I can only think how many tree's internally died for your THIRTY FIVE CENTS

I once had a check from Sears for a penny. Apparently I overpaid my credit card bill and they sent me a check for the over payment. Carried that check around for the longest time showing it off to people. That was a good 40 or so years ago. No idea what ever happened to the check though

Gene, have you thought about this. They might not want you back in the store to get that 35 cents. Maybe they thought you just may cash it and go to walgreens. Just a thought.

CASH IT.

I've had this happen a few times, I think I've actually received a 9¢ check before.

They are banking on you not cashing it, SCREW THEM. CASH IT.
