Cargo retention in the trunk

I've quickly learned that putting stuff in the trunk is pretty much like putting said stuff on the surface of an ice rink. I need a cargo retention system(nets,cables,barbed wire?) for the trunk.
Yes,I know that I could've gotten some nets from Ford when I bought the car but since my dealership can't pull its head out of its *** long enough to even get me my second fob(long story)I don't have a lot of confidence in their ability to handle an additional task. Any suggestions?

So I'm supposed to put Velcro on every item ?

Weather Tech makes a product called Cargo Tech. They are pretty good about not moving around. Maybe look into those?

I also bought a cloth tote with Velcro on the bottom. I use it as a detail kit for car shows. Holds towels and glass cleaner. Stuff like that. It does not move at all. Good for small items.

Banker's boxes.

Or other box. I use boxes, so I can slosh them all I want and not worry anymore. Box gets worn? Replace the box.

Works for me, and hey, easy trunk clean up, right?

There are 4 ***** on the back of the trunk, they are about 3' apart 8" high. I just purchased a cargo net off eBay for about $10, attached it to the *****, works great.
