Is Lowes still open? When my tank went, my cousin who is a plumber was going to fix it, and there ended up being a delay. My "plan B" was to buy a 120 volt 12 gallon electric tank and put it inline using the hot and cold lines fron the clothes washing machine. The key would be to sut off both valves to your current hot.
Not enough capacity for more than a 7 minute shower per hour, but better than nothing. At a cost of $250, might be less than the premiuim of getting a plumber in before Friday.
Having said that, I had tossed around the idea of a hot water tank for the garage, so the $250 wasn't all going to waste.
