When I travel I carry one of those Buttoneer gadgets that "staples" a

You'd think someone would make a similar device for fixing a pant's
cuff that comes unstitched :-)

Is there such a thing?

I've been known to use an actual stapler.

Me too :-) Staple show... you'd think some clever soul would do it
with thread... it's embarrassing when you notice secretaries looking
oddly at your pant's cuff :-(

Duct tape, of course. When traveling, take along a 3-ish foot strip.
Easiest (for me, at least) is to fold over the first inch or so, glue to
glue, and then wrap the rest around that. Takes up no space to speak of
and it does come in handy.
