Last time we were in Vegas a few months ago over a weekend $5 craps was available at Paris during the weekend days, and pretty much all the time as I recall at Bally's.
Woohoo, Vegas was actually my last trip--I was there the day you created this post! If you haven't gone already, here's my 2 $1 chips:
I always play my $5 craps at the Excalibur. It's fun and still "Strip" if that's what you're going for. They're usually good about keeping my cocktails coming, so I like that a lot too. When people are learning, dealers will tend to help you out with bets without suggesting stupid ones, at least in my experience. As others have pointed out, Casino Royale is good too (better odds, obviously), but it's a lot further down the Strip (though still walkable). Also, they tend to have an "older" crowd, and sometimes I'd rather chat up folks my own age. Guess it depends on what side of the Strip you're planning on being on.
I've rolled at Mirage in the early afternoon and the minimums were $5, on a Thursday specifically. Even with the low limits, I was the only one rolling.

Just spent the weekend at Excalibur and they had $5 craps every time I looked- weekdays, weekends, regardless of the time. Needless to say I spent a lot of time there.
The M casino would love to have your $5 action, even on a Friday or Saturday night, and while Casino Royale is the best craps deal on the center strip, and the M is located a dozen miles to the south, the M has class.
I won't comment on whether or not the M has class, but it sure as heck and little green frogs has a terrific Lemon Drop Martini served to gamblers. You would need a room there though...don't attempt driving anywhere after two of those Lemon Drop Martinis.
