What can I do with a gallon of beer and no bottles? Stella bottles won't fit my capper and that was half of my bottles
 
Drink it?

Or quickly find a bunch of pry offs. Does your state have a deposit? You may be able to pick up 12 bottles for cheap or go buy a 12 pack and call your friends. Or try a local craft beer bar.
 
Nah I live in the woods of south ga. Can I just put it in the fridge till tomorrow? They don't sell beer on sunday in georgia.

It might not work out too well- the priming sugar may or may not ferment out. If it was me, and I couldn't find any 2L soda bottles or 1L soda bottles, I'd let stick the airlock on the lid of the bottling bucket and let it ferment for a week, then reprime and bottle next weekend.

Yooper to the rescue!

Just be sure when you reprime you do it with an appropriate amount of priming sugar for the volume left.
