Have Savings, want to match inflation at the very least.

I'm looking to build up to 100k in savings in a short period of time. Where do I put this stuff? CD's are at zero for pretty much the next decade, equities are shit-tastic and looking at my dad's 401k makes me very hesitant toward that route. Bond funds are also bad, they're at their max possible values.

So what could I invest in that keeps me tracking inflation at the very least. I want to avoid funds, I have a strong dislike for bond funds that trade like stocks ( it kind of defeats the purpose ).
