My second favorite is felt bumpers/furniture pads. They are self adhesive and come in common diameters. Just peel, stick, and go. They absorb some of the lubricant and stay nice and mushy. So feel free to over-lubricate.

I have also used rubber garden hose washers. They only come in 5/8th and 3/4th inch diameters, so that's a problem for some plunger heads. But they work great and you can get a pack of ten for three bucks.
