I use actual Japanese Yen coins for my credstick, a friend went to a
gunshop and picked up a bag of bullets for damage counters (just some
smallish rounded bullets, not whole cartridges), and I use the simple glass
counters for misc marking. I've been toying with using some 'shrinkart'
plastic to make some of the more specialized counters (but who's got the
time?).
I've also heard of people using little post-it notes for some things.
