If you buy your bonds at a bank you can still get the current rate. The day your bonds start earning interest is the day you pay for the bonds at the bank (if the bank follows the correct procedures), not when the Federal Reserve gets the payment. What others have commented on below is not correct. YOU CAN STILL LOCK IN CURRENT RATES AT A BANK!
