       We squirted washing up liquid on the floor, stood the machine in the mat and used the WU liquid as a lubricant that the mat slid over.


    ah ha

    I'll give that a go tomorrow. 
    didn't think of that. 

    but with the weight of the machine on the pad, the machine feet will still dig into the mat even though I can move the mat... the machine will still drag the mat, no?

    It dragged ours with it but was fine.  Ours was sliding on a vinyl floor which may have helped.
