Shoutout to the $15 thermal curtain I grabbed at the thrift store

My heating bill dropped by almost $40 last month because my living room isn't a freezer anymore. Anyone have a good source for cheap window insulation kits?

Taped bubble wrap to my windows last winter. Worked shockingly well for like five bucks.

Honestly @thomasm15, how many layers of bubble wrap did you end up using? I'm trying to picture the setup.

Honestly, this whole thread is a perfect example of something I see all the time. People are getting really clever about small, cheap fixes because the big, expensive systems (like central heating) keep failing us. It's not just about saving a few bucks, it's about taking back a little control when stuff feels broken. Finding a simple solution, like a curtain or some bubble wrap, feels like a tiny win in a world that makes everything hard.
