Alternatives to pocket hole joinery?

Hi all,



I'm wondering what some alternatives to pocket hole joinery there is?



I don't have a pocket hole jig, and I didn't plan on buying one, mainly because I've read that it's hard to get the right screws in Australia (meaning I'd have to buy them online from an American site, which could be pretty expensive, not to mention the waiting time for them to arrive).



I've tried searching Google but I only ever get links to how to use a Kregg jig.. which is not what I'm after.



Any help/advice would be greatly appreciated.



Thanks,

Luke
