Can you find out if they have been cashed? I have my slip but I'm not finding a number to call to see if it had been cashed?


all right,if these were sent last week.i would check on wednsday.that should be enough time.go to the wal-mart with your receipt and they should be able to tell if it was cashed yet.

OK...well you arent going to like this too much, here what I found :(

USPS Money orders are normally not trackable to traceable, so to find out where a USPS money order is, or if it has been cashed, you need to take your original reciept and stub from the Money order to your local post office and fill out a Money Order Inquiry form, which has a $5.00 charge for processing (since they are normally not able to be tracked) - this process can take up to 2 months, but if the Money Order is found to be Lost and not cashed, the post office can do a reimbursement.
