Can i get Money orders at a bank?????
I dont have a post office near by

Yup. I got a $150 money order from Comerica not to long ago.

 

[waggy]

of course they can.

but from what i understand Post office money orders offer the most protection.

Yeah you can. Although the last time I went to get one they tried to get me to use a cashier's check instead. But that was probably better for $2300 anyway.

Yes banks can issue Money Order, Cashier's Check and other monetary instruments.

Many gas stations and groceries has MOs as well. There's plenty of places around here that do them for $0.89 or something like that. My bank charges $4.00 for them unless they are in a good mood or you have a priority account. I usually try them first. If I can't get it free there, I go to a gas station.

That's because Money Orders of any type are only issued at up to $1000.
