I have to go away for a day or two and all our stores are sold out of light timers........
Is it better to leave the lights on or off for a day or two?
 
Off for sure. Fish don't need light, just ambient light will give them the day/night cycle they need to rest. If you have live plants, 2 days without light won't hurt them.

As already mentioned leaving them off is fine. You can also find timers very cheaply at places like Home Depot, Walmart, etc.
