I beg to differ with /u/flargenhargen's suggestion of nail stakes. While they aren't bad, they are far from indestructable. I've killed a lot of them over my time. The plastic tips are easy to break and they bend like any other stake will if there's a rock 6" underground that you didn't know about.
With that said, these are the only tent stakes I've ever owned that I absolutely could not destroy. The manufacturer claims that they can be driven into asphalt and I believe them! They are truly buy it for life although I confess that in extremely hard ground you can get a workout driving in half a dozen of them (but the stakes themselves won't care).
Final comment: Different types of ground call for different types of stakes. Unless I know exactly what the ground is like where I'm going, I try to carry three different types of stakes. The nail stakes previously mentioned (work in hard clay). For really soft ground where stakes pull out easily (sand or snow), I use augers. For all else I use the bad boys I linked to at the top of my post. Yes, I carry all three types if I don't know exactly where I'm going in advance.
edit: I keep coming back to refine my comments. Sheesh|
