When I opened a checking account with my bank, they automatically gave me a quite generous supply of checks. There were no fees involved.

I find your described experience surprising. Are you perhaps using some other type of account which is not primarily a checking account?

Nope, it's a regular checking account which came with 3 free checks. I wasn't sure if there are generally fees involved; I think that in Australia there's some kind of ongoing cost to have a checkbook, but that's fine since virtually none of us use checks there anyway.
