Outside rugs

I've bought outdoor rugs from big box stores, but there has to be some kind of light wieght rugs that don't have everything stick to them. (Weeds, stickers) Any ideas?

Were the big box store rugs Weather-resistant polypropylene mats with decorative designs (aka RV Patio Mats)???? That is what you see everyone using as they are light weight, let water pass through when it rains, come in various sizes (9x12' is my preference) and fold up for easy storage.

Here is an example Patio Mat @ CW but you can find them many, many places. The best prices seem to be at the flea markets in Quartzsite, Yuma, and Mesa AZ

No I didn't see anything like that. I bought two different kinds of indoor outdoor carpet, you no the green rugs, just two different quality's. Not cheap as I remember. Thanks for the link.

In our early days of camping we too used the Green Indoor/Outdoor carpet, but if it got wet was it ever heavy and a mess to store.
We now use a typical RV Patio Mat, have a large one for long term use and a smaller one for short term stays.
