How do I stop an area rug from moving around on my Berber carpet?

How do I stop a area rug from moving around on my Berber carpet? I have added the strips that are sold to use for rug to rug, to stop rug from moving . Does not work, the rug still shifts and gets lumps/ripples in it. This will not be very nice for my holiday guests. I used the same area rug on a wall to all carpet in another room and it did not move at all. Any other tips?
Suggested Project Book
Buy some of that mesh shelf liner at the dollar store and place a large piece under the area rug. No more moving. The mesh will stay in place.
Another option is carpet tape-it's really sticky. That said, I don't know the effects of when it is removed. I suggest trying it in a inconspicuous corner of the room.
Try using Velcro strips
You need some kind of rubber mat underneath the area rug to hold it in place.
