Necessities


Paying Bills - Normal household bills (electricity, Internet, etc.) may be paid at any post office or bank.  Take a copy of your bill, showing the amount to be paid and account number and routing number for the company to be paid.  Go to the teller and complete a payment form with all the pertinent information.  She/he will enter it in the computer and then you will go to the cashier “Blaganja” to pay.  Be sure to get your receipt to prove your payment in case of any disagreement with the vendor.
