We buy small entrance door mats. We put grommets in them and use small bungees to hold them on.
Very inexpensive that way.

I bought rubber backed indoor/outdoor carpet runner at the local farm store and made my own. I did have a grommet tool so the cost was less than half of what the boughten step covers would be. Even if I would have purchased a grommet tool, they still would have been cheaper. I also work cheap so it was a win win for me. Like others said, they catch a lot of dirt and sand. And the steps aren't as slick when they are wet.

I just saw these in the Menards ad.

Walmart has them for about $9.00 each.

Yup, works well.

e have the "Fake Astro Turf" catches a lot of gravel and sand, don't hold water, and we have all four covered.

Yes, you could. But then you would have to cut it to size, buy the grommets, and the springs. The ones we have also have a rubber backer on them. They have held up to a year and a half of many times a day use, with barely any wear.

Sometimes, it's better to just bite the bullett and purchase something outright, instead of going through the hassle to save a couple bucks. JMO
