I found educational sticker charts at a $$ store with numbers 1-100. I use these to number my multiples of non uniques. another Juice Man Idea:  the color rings used to be put on keys to ID them, work great as color coding pieces. Cut the ring at 1 point in the circle, and it will fit on the base of your minis

I played against someone who took a bunch of star stickers and cut them in half - half on the base of a common and half on the sleeve of the card. Good way to tell them apart.
I use red 6-sided dice for damage and white 6-sided dice for FP.

I surprised no one else has said they do this, but I use 10 sided dice for health. It translates perfectly and is real easy to track. For FP I use anything from 4 to 8 sided dice.

Yep! I have a bunch of D10s for just that purpose. For FPs I use small red 6-siders. Also use those to mark door-state. I have a ton of different dice, but for some reason my D20s don't roll higher than 8. They must be defective

Depending on what candy we are snacking on...we sometimes use Skittles for door markers. Green Skittle means door Overriden open, red Skittle means door is locked. When I use a bunch of UC/Cs, I will sometimes use the candy to mark which ones have taken a hit, green equals almost full health, then yellow, orange, and red for "near dead." It works great until we run out of candy.

If you buythem at an office store they are WAY over priced but if you work with your play group to buy a small case you can get them in bulk for like .50 each or- do like i've done in the past, when you donate blood or visit the Dr. Office ask the nurses if you can have theirs Cool, thanks guys.

For marking doors open or closed, I use green or red markers. A couple friends bought some thin green and red from the craft store, glued them together, and cut out small circles; they flip the foam so the proper color is up as needed.
