there are many types of rug grips to put under area rug.
while they will help, they are not going to end all your creeping problems. also, if you have a rug on top of a rug, you want to make sure that you are moving the area rug an vaccuming under it also. the backing om the area rug is very
abasive, and will eventually start wearing the nap on the installed piece, kind of like rubbing sandpaper over the spot again and again, the rug grips are available in different sizes, and can usually be purcharched thru most reputable flooring companies

Is the carpet rippled all the time or just when you move the furniture? That can be caused by not having the carpet stretched properly when it was installed, from having part of the tack strip that holds it in place missing (removed, damaged, etc), or from the carpet just being old and worn out.
If the carpet under your area rug is rippling up you need to get the carpet re-stretched and attached properly. After that's done you can use double sided tape or even Velcro to keep an area rug where you want it.

instead of tape which will leave a residue you can velcro closures. put one on the carpet and one on the rug it'll hold nicely just to walk across.

Go to Wal-mart and buy some of the rubbery feeling rolls of shelf liner to put under your runners. It should work. I have a piece of it under my husbands recliner as the base is flat and it would slide back and when he put the recliner back it hit the wall. If it'll hold a recliner in place, it should work for your runners.

Try double sided tape. By your description, it sounds like it may be the furniture moving and causing the problem.

Duct tape is the best way to go.
