flags work, if you can get any. People seem to pull them up and skip them all the time.

Also straw (as a lighter/cheaper alternative) - but slugs like it underneath, so its a tradeoff).

Landscape fabric with bark chippings if you want to do it on the cheap as most councils give them away, only problem is they get blown all over when it is windy :)

I don't mind the weeds really
Self-sufficient in rasberries and bindweed. Slug pellets can be handy.

If you can find old board lengths, you can use them for a while. I put old poly feed bags under my mulch - they last longer. Chippings are usually free.
