I love my hardwood floors. LOVE THEM. For so many reasons, my allergies, no cat hair, etc, but the time has come for us to procure some type of… rug.  ANd good goddamn, but I cannot find one I like. I mean, I don’t want to spend a fortune, but I don’t want an ugly rug that is also scratchy and thin!  And chhhheeeeerist, even the ugly/scratchy/thin ones are 60 bucks at Target! Sigh.

I have expensive taste. For instance, I LOVE this rug by Momeni, or this one, or this one… and, embarrassingly enough, there are lots that I like in this line (whose name I cannot type, but I joked that the reason why I was drawn to it was that we both wanted to be able to hide puke stains), but alas, out of my budget. Maybe slightly more IN my budget is this one at Overstock, or this one, but then, I have no idea how plush or non-plush it is, or scratchy, or whatever. I’ve checked target, Marden’s, TJMaxx, Kohl’s, Home Depot, etc… and it’s all basically sucky, or 400 bucks for a 5×8 rug. Sigh. Anyone have any other tips?
