How to keep a rug from sliding around the floor

Go to the automotive department at your local Wal-Mart and purchase a can of Rubberized undercoating and spray it on the bottom of the rug. A can of this will do several rugs and only costs $2.99 compared to that sticky tape which can cost you over $10.

Wal-Mart is a US store that sells almost anything. You could find a similar product in a vehicle maintenance shop

I have a high pile white carpet that I have runners on that always slide and bunch up. I've tried nailing it down and all kids of tape for rugs and nothing works and I don't want to ruin the carpet underneath the rug either
