While I am unable to give specific strategies, I have definitely seen some clever uses of oft used spells. Things like Mage Hand, Enlarge/Shrink Items and the such. For instance, one mage in a game I was playing used mage hand to undo the straps an enemy fighter's armour. While not delicate enough to cause the armour to fall off, the idea was that it created a type of encumbrance, giving a -1 to all physical rolls. Granted, much of the more clever ideas will probably be within DM prerogative, it is definitely something to think about.

So, my advice, essentially, is look at those overlooked spells, and let your imagine run wild.
