I know quite a few people now who consistently confuse the spelling of "lose" and "loose". There are tons of easy ways to remember the difference. I've compiled some of my favorites here.

As a reminder:
Loose is an adjective, meaning the opposite of tight or contained.
Lose is a verb, meaning the opposite of win or keep.
