Does your community have a gazillion Oriental carpet shops about to go out of business in the next 30 days? Some of those old tribal rugs are hugely durable and they sometimes come in odd sizes. My mother has a runner in her kitchen that has had all manner of random food items spilled upon it, and it looks great after 20 or so years and lots of abuse. A smaller rug wouldn't be all that expensive, maybe two or three hundred dollars, if you smile nice and allude to all the other naked floorspace in your house that could, in the future, use coverings.
