In New Horizons, the player may acquire rugs which can be placed inside their home. Rugs may not overlap each other but can be placed under furniture items.
Rug Sources[]
Saharah[]
Saharah will sell rugs to the player, alongside the wallpaper and flooring for which they are known.
They will offer to sell the player three different sizes of rug: A small rug for 1,000 Bells, a medium rug for 1,500 Bells, or a large rug for 2,000 Bells.
Each type of rug will grant the player a rug of that size, as well as a preset amount of Saharah Tickets that the player can then exchange for Wallpaper or Flooring. A small rug will grant 1 Ticket, a medium rug will grant 2 Tickets, and a large rug will grant 3 tickets. 5 Tickets are required for an exchange. The merchandise that Saharah sells will change on each visit, however, the rugs and mysterious wallpaper/flooring will be the same for anyone who purchases them from her on that particular visit. Rugs can be purchased multiple times, though, if the player has already purchased that sized rug during Saharah's current visit, Saharah will confirm the style of rug with the player before completing the sale.
