Next week, Madison's school is putting on a Spring Concert for the parents and we are looking forward to going. Today an email was sent out from one of the parents to all of the other parents asking if they wanted to put their money together and buy gifts for all of the teachers.
Instead of a parent saying "pay me $20 at the concert" or "here's my address, mail me a cheque", the technological advancement of Finland has proven once again to be beneficial.
"Here is my bank account number". You sign into your bank online, fill in the bank account number and name of the individual, and how much you want to give them. Boom, money is sent. No cheques, no cash, no change. There is also a handy little Message section so that I could write Maddy's name and in which class she's in. And no bank fees.
It's a beautiful thing. Although I'm not sure Andrew appreciates how easy it is for me to spend our money...
