I use 6" aluminum gutter nails. Way too big to stick in a pot, but for a reasonably permanent site in the open ground, they are my gold standard. Admittedly I had my gutters redone and had a pile of them for free. I've never priced them at Home Depot.
Bob Zone 7 finally sunny today!

If you use the twist-on wired aluminum tags Christine mentions, you can
settle them more securely by twisting the wire onto a groundcloth staple
(stiff wire) and inserting that in the soil. The staples are not
rustproof but they last a very long time.

>> I have used CoolrunnerAluminum plant tags for years. It’s a double sided tag that you write on with a pen and the name becomes engraved on the tag. It can’t be erased or fade or anything like that. There is a small wire that goes into the 2 holes on the tag and affixed to the plant with a simple twist. Or it can be stuck into the soil without the wire. Amazon offers them for $8.99/50 tags. $13.99 for 100. 200 for $22.99.
