From the August 15th List Universe.
10. ALWAYS A BRIDESMAID, NEVER A BRIDE-- Actually, from a Listerine commercial. I guess if you don't use it, you'll never get married.
9. BARK UP THE WRONG TREE-- From hinting and dogs treeing raccoons.
8. BE ON A GOOD FOOTING-- It is customary for trade apprentices to take out fellow workers on their first day of employment. Drinks on them and they "FOOT" the bill.
7. BEAT AROUND THE BUSH-- Also from hunting.
6. BEST FOOT FORWARD-- Trying to make a good impression. The left foot was considered sinister, so for gosh sake, put your right foot out in front when meeting someone.
