When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.
How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:
An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)
A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).
Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.
When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.
* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.

After "and use it" she hesitated thinking about what to add next, and when she remembered "money orders" she simply skipped "for".
Happens when people speak spontaneously. Had few time to interpret far more disjointed speeches.

Your're right. And thank you for your explanations.
But this is not a fake text. It's a real roport.
The dialogue seems to be an English woman (i.e. native English speaker) speaking. She says "....I use it for money orders". The sound quality is not very good and it's easy to to miss the "for".
Asker, you need to close this as "errant question"
Decide on the money order amount. ...
Go to any Post Office location.
Take cash, a debit card, or a traveler's check. ...
Fill out the money order at the counter with a retail associate.
Pay the dollar value of the money order plus the issuing fee.
Keep your receipt to track the money order.
In this instance, there is an obvious missing word in your text extract: I'm pretty sue the woman would have actually said "...and I use it for money orders" — nothing else really makes sense. Even if it were 'its' (which I think is much less likely), it would not have an apostrophe (possessive)
2- and use it's money orders.
Neither is correct!

What Is a Money Order?
A money order is a certificate, usually issued by a government or banking institution, that allows the stated payee to receive cash on demand. A money order functions much like a check, in that the person who purchased the money order may stop payment.
IMO, "and use it **for/to send** money orders.
