We've used a bank debit card for yrs & do record every time we pay with it.No different than when we used checks only(we still use checks).When we come home, the 1st thing done is recording any check/debit card payments made that day.DH doesn't want to pay interest,so we keep all paper work up to date.

We were taught in school how to write a check and balance our checking acct - I think that is a lost art too.
