Cheapest PLace to buy rug or mat

[Nickel]

I tried searching the forums, but the word is too short and the string of words I'm using is too common

In any case, I am looking for a large carpet or mats or something I can put in my infant area. I want something I can remove at the end of the day and put down in the morning. I want a nice clean area for the babies to lay, crawl, etc...

Does anyone know a reputable place I can purchase something like this that doesn't cost a small fortune? I've looked for used items, but there isn't much in my area... If you could tell me what you use in your area I'd appreciate it too.

Thanks

I have had a bunch of luck finding cheap carpets at Lowes. They have clearance and already cut carpets someone doesn't want. I also bought big durable foam tiles for $20. Ikea also has some well priced rugs but I had better luck at Lowes.

do you have a Costco? Mine has a bunch of cute kids rugs right now that are only about $20

The BX on base has some nice ones for not a lot of money and no sales tax!!

IKEA, Wal-mart, Re-sale shops, target while school supplies are out, lowes, dollar store...last but not least Garage sales!


Good Luck!

Gymnastics mats are the best! They are very expensive, I know. That's why I don't have one but sometimes you can find them on craigslist or closing daycares.
