Paying for cigs with a check

I'm a broke college student. I deliver chinese food 2-3 days a week to make ends meet. My parents help me out a little bit with my rent and tuition, thank god, but thats it. So right now I have $3.07 in my bank account, and $0.80 in change. I want a pack of cigs, so I'm thinking about writing the gas station a check for them since the check wont process through to my checking account until at least monday I should think. By then I'll be able to deposit some cash to cover the check. Is my thinking correct? Haha help a noddin' fella out here.

Good shit. My buddy owes me $15 and tomorrow is his payday (I get paid every other Wednesday, off the books though so it's all gravy), so everything should work out.
Anyway, off to grab some camel lights. The dude that works at this Hess is a fat redneck piece of shit who is always in a pissy mood, can't wait to see what he says about my check haha.

go find a public fountain. After dipping your arm in a few times, you'll get enough for at least a pack of cigarettes. People throw coins in them like you wouldn't believe.
Sure, you maybe be destroying a little kids wish, but in the end it's worth it, because you are fueling a bad habit. 
But in all seriousness, If you have to write a check to get some cigarettes, though it might be weird, who cares. Money is money.

Hahaha I've thought about doing that everytime I walk by one of those fountains, I'd just feel like such a fuckin' prick kneeling over snatching up all the coins hahah. Problem is, there's no fountains around here. Possibly the mall, but it's not a very nice mall so I doubt it. Check it is.

Yeah, that's like telling an alcoholic he should just, gasp, not buy a bottle of liquor.

Firstly, it was merely a suggestion.
Secondly, your last statement makes you a hypocrite.

What do you mean you quit? I don't know where you hail from but here in the USA we don't have non-smokers.

When I dealt I had a few regular customers that wrote me checks for bags.
I even went far enough to take a credit card payment from a very good friend with my dads wireless credit card machine. I don't know why to this day that I did that, but it all worked out ok.

I had a buddy that refused to get a debit card for some reason so he was always writing checks to people. He tried to pay me for a bag with a check one time so I smacked him and told him to go cash it at the grocery store haha.
Ps. I second hand smoke 2 packs a day

This was to a friend so he knew I was good for it plus a bounced check would have hurt me more than him, I also wrote in the memo that it was for an eighth
