var str = This is a string; var thing = str.replace(string,thing); console.log( str )

var str = "This is a string";
var thing = str.replace("string","thing");

console.log( str )
>> "This is a string" 

console.log( thing )
>> "This is a thing" 

Is there another method I can use, besides replace, that will alter the string in place without giving me a new string object?

    No, strings in JavaScript are immutable.
