This is my third year of using cages for tomatos. 
I, too, use the ones made from a 30 ft roll. I make mine
a bit larger than recommended so I end up with about half
a would be cage left over. My cage material also came from
Sears, and I waited for sale time to get a bunch of fibre-glass
cage posts which keep the cages secure. The galvanizing on the
cage wire seems ok through two winters of outdoor storage.
Caged tomatos are not quite as early as staked, but much easier to
take care of.
