I do not think this posted when I tried to earlier.

I will try to make it shorter. Please give me some advice about buying a rug for my classroom. My budget is $230.

Do I get solid,or educational? Where do I get a quality, low cost rug? Do I need a pad?

Any advice is appreciated,

Bev-MI I went to a carpet store, checked out their remanents, picked one about the size I wanted and could afford.

My room was carpeted and I wanted to cover some nasty stains as well as make a reading corner. I just put the new one down on top of the existing carpet, no pad. Paid for it myself.

Amanda I went to Sports Authority and bought the cushioned pads that they sell for home gym floors. They wipe clean, snap together into the shape you need, and are lightweight. We have to take everything out every summer, so they met my needs. They are not cute, but neither am I!

Emily M My experience with cheap educational rugs is that they fall apart extremely quickly. They also show stains quickly. I would get something solid from a remnant sale as others have suggested.
