so a friend of mine who lives like 3 hours away owes me a large sum of money. 5000+. it would be beneficial to both of us if he didn't spend the gas money to drive here and i have no way to get to him. what are my options as far as getting money here, short of giving him my bank account number and having him put it in the account for me.

Anything over $10k will be flagged by a financial institution. Money orders could work, as they're anonymous at the time of purchase. Would still have to be sent in the mail BUT both parties could keep tabs on it (see if it was cashed and by who, plus I believe there's some type of insurance on it if they are stolen, etc.).

Bitcoins
Your friend buys them, then you cash them out (or sit on them as an investment)

im telling you just give paypal your routing and then your friend makes his own account and does the same and just have him wire to yours
it's no big deal maybe get 2500 or less at a time since i think 3000 is the cut off in some places

Have him drive over there and get the money and use it to pay for your gas. Paypal takes a small percentage of your money. I found this on the Paypal site:
"Goods and services – Purchase payments:
There’s no fee to use PayPal to purchase goods or services. However, if you receive money for goods or services (such as from selling an item on eBay), the fee for each transaction is 2.9% plus $0.30 USD of the amount you receive." So basically, they will take $150 from you. Its cheaper for you or him to drive there. Or you can be a lazy ass and potentially have the government investigating your large transfer of money. Which would be $4849.70 instead of $5000 minus gas money. And if he really is your friend and not just a "business" partner, he would really do that for you. Good luck.

If it's under 10k, have him write you a check.
You do know that transferring money is the reason checks were invented, right?

If your bank is a national chain and there is a branch near him, just have him deposit the money into your account. They don't even ask for ID for deposits.
EDIT: Sorry, just re-read that you didn't want to it this way. I dunno why though. It would seem to be the easiest way.

Just have him mail cash if you can't have him drive. IDK why it wouldn't be worth it for $5,000 though.

"mail cash" 
It happens all the time, and it's legal to send up to $5,000 cash through USPS. You can also get insurance in case your package gets lost. It's really the most viable anonymous way except driving, which OP apparently isn't willing to do.
