If you get a debit card that can also be used as a visa or mastercard - you can request that it's only a debit. that way if you misplace it, there's no way someone can be taking $ out of your checking account. It's a bit of a pain, but is wonderful for the piece of mind. Sure they might reimburse all fraudulent charges, but will they do that before a check bounces?
