computer chair mat for laminate floor

I knew it would happen but never got around to it. I got a large circle just appearing on the floor caused by a computer chair rubbing on the laminate floor. I did have the problem in old house on a carpet and thought when I moved I will get a mate but one thing led to another and now its getting a little noticeable in the right light.

Any recommend a computer chair mat at a reasonable price £30 tops. We dont have that Swedish store nearby never been to on.

Probably have to get one online just wondered if anyone can recommend one.


Thanks

    Daft question alert.

    Could you not just get a cheap offcut of carpet for it? Should be able to pick something up for around a fiver.

  • Dunno about carpet but the underlay that you lay when laying a carpet should suffice, its pretty tough stuff. Go to a carpet store they'll porbably give you some for nothing and if its brown then it won't look so out of place on the laminate flooring.
    Live for what tomorrow has to bring, not what yesterday has taken away

    I thought about a carpet off cut but wanted something transparent so as not to obscure the laminate flooring
