Rug Advice - Shave or Landing Strip?

Oh. I assumed that for like $7, it would be extremely tiny.


And they don't kill the sheep when they shave them. They merely make them funny-looking.

I'm pretty good at finding good deals. The "as is" department at Ikea rocks. You never know what you will find there and minor imperfections never bother me. I picked up a coffee table there for about $10.00 and it's solid wood instead of a laminate. It had a small dent in it.
 
wait until august, goto the nearest college town, and pick up a bunch of those rugs they sell to freshman to put in there dorms. they're normally pretty cheap and fairly large... plus you'll have a huge selection.
