I used to get asked occasionally at my old bank what they were for. Another common question was why I didn't do wires instead. My usual reply was to point out that I was depositing 8-10 relatively low value ($xxx) cheques today, now imagine how much of the value would be eaten up with 8-10 wire send + wire receive fees...
My current bank lets me mail in cheques so long as they're below about $USD500.
