Very few people use Travellers checks these days when there are many ATMs available. TCs are an absolute pain and when travelling.
What do you do thith your $1000 in TCs every week?
I don't know about where you live, but my bank has absolutely no problem accepting travelers checques as a deposit.
Or, pay your taxes, pay your rent, etc. The uses are endless.
