Ok SlamDesigns - first, seeing that you live in a small town, I can understand that you're going to your neighbourhood restaurant to cash them - but trying to cash a US cheque drawn on a Canadian bank or a Canadian Bank with a US corresponding bank is a WHOLE OTHER STORY. *BTW - if you do go through a bank that can't cash it for you and they have to send it for special clearing, each cheque will eventually cost you about $40-$60 US to get cashed + over 30-45 days for you to see the money*

My question to you is this - does your town have ATM machines?

If yes, I'd suggest you get one of your sponsors to get you an Epassporte or Funds2Go card - then send them back the checks with uncleared funds and have them transfer the funds to your new card so you can easily withdraw the funds from the card.
