Can you cash a cashiers check without a bank acount?

I recieved my state tax refund, it's a cashiers check, and I don't have a bank account. I really don't want to open one unless I have to. Is it possible to cash a cashiers check without having a bank account?

If you go to the bank that the check is drawn on, then they will cash it, provided that you can supply sufficient identification. You might also want to consider if you have any friends or family that has a bank account, endorse the check over to them, let them deposit it into their account, and give you the cash. A lot cheaper than going through a check cashing place.
Reply:YES, YOU CAN GO TO THE BANK THAT IT IS DRAWN ON. AS LONG AS YOUI HAVE A PICTURE ID THEY SHOULD BE ABLE TO CASH IT FOR YOU.
Reply:You can also go to one of the money mart places but they charge an arm and a leg. At this time of year a lot of banks will cash it but they also charge a fee, usually less than the check cashing joints. good luck to ya !!!
