Do you love Shrek, the endearing big green ogre with a sly sense of humor? Would you like to make your bank checks more attractive? If so, then you might want to think about getting the "Shrek" checks. Entertaining and fun, these vivid checks can add excitement to anyone's checkbook. They're probably not as pricey as you might think they are, either.

Shrek was able to charm audiences around the world because, unlike other cartoon heroes, he had shortcomings and other personality eccentricities that just about anyone could identify with. He wasn't an attractive prince at all, but audiences couldn't help but be on his side. He was a halfhearted hero that just wanted to be left by himself, except destiny wouldn't let him. While he was most comfortable living in his swamp, he soon fell in love with the stunning princess that had a dreadful secret of her own.

With his hilarious sidekick Donkey and his princess Fiona, Shrek won the hearts of audiences when he first came onto the scene. The popular "Shrek" movie was based on the 1990 fairy tale book by William Steig. There have now been 3 movies released featuring Shrek and his popularity remains strong.

Not only was Shrek important in making audiences grow affectionate of a new kind of hero, but it was also responsible for making Dreamworks, which released the film, a competitor for the popular Pixar studios. Since "Shrek" was released, other Dreamworks films have gone on to gain fame including "Madagascar", "Shark Tale", "Flushed Away" and "Kung Fu Panda."

Today, not only are there three popular "Shrek" movies, but there is even an animated theme park attraction called Shrek 4-D. Two short films have been made starring the ogre and in 2011, there is even going to be a spin off movie about Puss n Boots, a central character in the Shrek films.

Contrasting to some other check series, the Shrek checks come with 8 different designs. This means that your checkbook will have a diversity of images of Shrek and it will be awhile before any of your check designs are repeated.

The checks themselves contain images of some of your favorite Shrek characters. You can view Shrek, Fiona, Dragon, Donkey, and some of their other friend as scenes from the movie adorn your wallet.

In addition to the checks, you can also purchase coordinating accessories, too. A matching green leather checkbook cover, complete with an image of Shrek, Donkey, and Puss n Boots will go great with your checks. You can find matching address labels, too.

Keep in mind that if you order your checks online from a reputable website you can save as much as 50% off the cost of your checks. Plus, you will receive them in about 5 days, which might be faster than your bank got them to you in the past.

When you order your checks, remember to have your routing number and checking account number available. These will be printed directly onto the checks themselves.
