Step 1: Save your Bitcoin wallet in a thumb drive.
Step 2: Place your thumb drive inside a bowl filled with rose water.
Step 3: Cover with a blanket.
Step 4: At midnight, yell "Satoshi Nakamoto" three times.
Step 5: Come back in three days and you will find the equivalent amount of your local currency inside the bowl.

If three days is too long for you, follow the recommendations of the other posters in the thread.
Personally, I have always liked LocalBitcoins.com.
