I have been trying to buy BTC because of the great rate right now. I have been using BITINSTANT but MT GOX is down. Do I have any other options that I can use cash deposit for? I went to BITSTAMP but they require a wire transfer that takes up to 5 days, which is no good for me.

sign up on bitfloor.
click deposit. USD...then specify the amount. write down the info they tell you to deposit that account in.
go to a bank of america. take out a in state deposit slip. write down the 3 peices of simple information and deposit THAT EXACT amount specified in the withrdawal request.
congrats...you now have money to trade bitcoins in under 10 minutes.

It may come to that...however, the closest BoA is almost 100 miles away!

woah.
wells fargo works too

I'm on bitfloor right now and it says the only LocalTill banks are BoA. Damn. Road Trip!
Update:
Bitfloor
The servers are misbehaving.
Our engineers are looking into it.

you could call a friend who is near one. tell them to do it for you.
no identification is needed.
and wire them the money or some shit.
200 miles to go there and back is pretty crazy
then again, not investing in bitcoins is even more crazy so, respect.

Try localbitcoins.com , maybe you find someone in your area with decent prices.

Bitfloor is experiencing a DDoS attack right now....can't even get a deposit slip!

seems to be up and working. yay btc here i come!

Gotta wonder why BitInstant doesn't use BitFloor or any of the other exchanges when Mt Gox is screwing up.
