Hi guys and gals,

 

What do you use and do you have any recommendations on where to get them at a fair price?  Enjoy your weekend.

 

Thanks! Cool

It depends on where you are going to get them. Some credit unions offer free money orders. A money order is fine for anything below $1,000.

You can get a postal money order for free as well.  Many banks also offer free cashiers checks, just get a good bank. USAA is one, for example.

no it's where they charge high interest rates for loaning you money until your next paycheck. I just use them to get free money orders since they're right up the street.

Hey Kevin and Sunil,

 

Thanks for the advice.  I didn't have enough time so I grabbed one from Wells Fargo.  They charged 8 bucks! Frown
