Interlocking Foam or Rubber Tiles

[coolspot]

Hello Everyone,

I used to remember seeing these all over the place:

Anyone know where I can get several packs in Toronto? Canadian Tire seems to only have 4-packs with no removable edge (I need to cover a 8 x 4 area)

Rubber interlock tiles are an option as well - depending on the cost.

Thanks!

I think I saw them at the dollar store too. As for removable edge -- exacto-knife?

The ones with the removable edge allow you to interlock a larger grid area.

I think the ones available at Canadian tire do not have such an edge, so you're stuck with a 4x4 area.

I bought 4 packs of 4 from canadian tire in kanata and made a nice play area for kids... the packs that I bought did have removable edges

I saw some at a Zellers store in BC in the kiddie bedding section.

You can buy these at Costco.
They sell 16-packs for not much more than what you can get them elsewhere.
Much better deal.

Yep, I did a large area and costco's price comes to a fraction of what you'd spend anywhere else.. their packs include the edge pieces as well.

The canadian tire are 4 packs that are colored (red, green, blue, yellow) on one side and all grey on the other side. They come with removeable edges.

Regular price $15. Usually on sale for $9 a few times a year.
