Bumping this thread in hopes that someone can give suggestions on where to buy cheaper rugs. I took home three different ones from Home Goods, and I like the price ($300 for a 7' x 10'), and the fact that I can see, feel, and take them home right away. However, the one that looked great in our room ended up pilling a lot (fuzz came off) the first day, so unfortunately, I had to take it back.
Where else would you suggest to look for a rug that is $500 or under? I would buy online, but I really want to touch, smell, and feel them, and see how the color and pattern looks in our room (don't want to order and pay to ship them back).
The only places I've looked are Pottery Barn, HomeGoods, and Pier 1. Where else should I try? And what materials should I avoid so I'm not stuck with something that's a fuzzy, linty mess?
Thanks so much!
