I've used bits of yarn, paper clips, safety pins, dental retainer elastics, and "proper" stitch markers.
I've got a nice stash of fancy beaded markers which I very rarely use. What I use the most are the ones like little safety pins. They're very useful for marking the beginning of a sock round when using dpns because you can clip them to a stitch and not worry about them falling off the dpn.
