improving foot technique

Can anyone tell me how i can practice foot technique other than the actual practice time?
i know there are some bass pads like practice pads
but i want something different then that
something cheaper i guess as i am saving up for other equipment,
and which can be found at home
i tried pillows (didn't work)

Mukund, can you please move this to the technique forum? Every few days you post a thread in General Discussion that should be elsewhere and it's getting tiresome!

DAMMIT!!
whats wrong with me
well i am sorry
i have a habit of this
please forgive me
i wont do it again
i frkin promise
and moderators please shift this thread
