How to use Laravel Eloquent ORM to make an or statement

Question

How to use Laravel Eloquent ORM to make an OR statement?

I know I can make multiple select like this (AND)

Order::where('id', '<', $myid)->where('finance','ok')->get();

Answer 1

Order::where('id', '<', $myid)->orWhere('finance','ok')->get();

That gives you the OR

http://laravel.com/docs/queries#advanced-wheres gives you more details but it's the orWhere that is interesting to us here.
