My favourite grandparent story is when my grandpa tried to purchase a business in town (on the island). They needed a credit check. He said sure. Realized they had no credit. The bank or whoever required the credit check asked "how come, how did you get your car?". Umm cash. "Your house?" I built it. "Sir you need a credit card". So grandma got a new stove at sears. She still talks about how nice that stove was. Lol. They were then approved.
