    The Infamous Duct Tape. Only because the stapler was out of staples.

    When my pants get too big in the waist, they're usually too big all over... less booty taking up the back and less thigh taking up space as well, so I find my pants get too long also. I take the top waist band and roll it over one so it not only makes the waist tighter, but it takes up some of the extra length as well. This works especially well on dress pants that have a thich waist band.

    I've been running low on "casual" clothes more than work clothes due to the fact that I've made a point to make sure my work clothes fit. I've been tying knots in my XL t-shirts in order to wear them and not feel like I'm swimming in them. Haven't gone so far to find one of those plastic things they had in the 80's to purposely do that though :laugh:

    around here people cut the sides of the shirt in to horizontal to the hem, split the seam and tie the strips back together, really cute and you can wear your favorite shirt longer

    I have used paperclips and also stapled hems or used tape when they came out while I was at work but I think the oddest thing I used, on my son, was a zip tie. I forget exactly why I did that but I did.
    at my cousin's wedding this fall the ring bearer's tux pants were tooooo short.. we dropped the hem and re did it with purple duct tap
