Similar, I believe - usually around $9, sometimes less, at HF:

The Big Lots ad isn't working for me. If they're the grey ones they work well. I notice a big difference in fatigue if I don't put them down when I wheel out my saw.

They are pretty stinky when you first get them out of the package. Keeping them outside for a couple days seems to help.

Question for those who use these. Did you have any problem using them below grade, that is, in a basement? Did you take them up for cleaning and see any moisture or mold under them?

Thanks.

I don't have those specific ones but I do use mats in my basement and have not noticed any moisture on them. However, the local geology is such that after the top couple feet of soil the ground is very sandy and drains really quickly. I have never seen any moisture coming in through the floor or walls or in the sump basket.

If you did have moisture problems I wouldn't be surprised if these did grow mold as on mine at least I don't believe the rubber will allow any significant air circulation.

Went there today and picked up a set.
