How can I support potted tomato plants?

I DO NOT have a fence or a wall for supports. These plants IN POTS...are 5-6 feet tall and need support.

You can buy tomato cages at Walmart
It sounds as if it might be too late for tomato cages if your plants are already six feet tall. However, if you can get a cage or a broom handle, strong piece of wooden trim, or strong wire to create a tepee shape above the plant, you can train the tomatoes to go back down the frame you have made or provided. Don’t snap the stems. Just tie them every foot or so to the frame using a stretchy material like strips of panty hose, not too tightly. You must have amazing plants. Congratulations! Jewell

Tomato cages or sticks with twine.
Can you move the pots against something like a fence and use plants tie strips to tie it against it for support?
