I use it lol. I can't really find a good substitute other than to rephrase my entire sentence.
I use yall no '... It's more of a coutry thing. I use it every once in awhile and like the one kid said 'when texting' I use it when texting also just for the fact it's alot faster and I hate texting haha.

I don't think that I have ever used it in my life =].
I use it. It's very convenient to have a second person plural pronoun. It also flows well with other abbreviations, such as "d'y'all" (do y'all), "y'all've" (y'all have), "y'all'll" (y'all will), and so on. On occasion, I might say "you guys", but mainly when talking with foreigners who might not know what "y'all" means. I also refrain from using it when writing formal prose such as letters to companies, because it's technically improper. "you all" should be "all of you"
