Thanks!
There are many many mats on Amazon. Easy, cheap, free returns, all from the comfort of your home. I have one in front of the sink and another in front of the stove. Very comfy!

I bought my first mat in 2011 when we moved here, got it at Sam's Club for $35. It was dark brown, I had compared them to the ones at Bed, Bath & Beyond and they were over $100 at the time.

In August we had new wood floors installed and I wanted a lighter brown color to match and the original one was 9 years old and started to show some wear on the outside. We got one at Amazon for $36 with free shipping, they have many to choose from.

I have them because of a medical condition and have one in front of sink and one in front of stove. I love them and they are rounded around the edge so you won't trip on them. I think I got them at Kohls.

You can order from Costco.com if you are unable to drive to a Costco.

Patfla06, gel mats can’t hurt, it’s got to be better than walking on a cement slab & very hard tile!

Yes, I have same problems so I got 2 mats from Bed bath and beyond and they work great plus I got to use my 20 percent coupons on them.

I like mine. I have it beside my sink and it helps if I am standing for a long period of time.

The hard floors are killer on feet as well. Padded mats might help, but avoid walking around barefoot, especially if you've dealt with Plantar Fasciitis (very painful.) I swear by Easy Spirit slip-on mules as a good support house shoe/slipper. They are very comfortable!
