1. A window insulator kit for keeping you warm *and* saving you money on your heating bills. The clear film shrinks to create an airtight lining to prevent drafts and heat loss.

Promising review: "I buy this every winter, and it makes a BIG difference ! We have super-thin windows, and this works like a charm to stop 80% of the cold drafts. I find I can sit right next to the window without a problem after installing them. It's easy to install and looks invisible after you apply heat with a hair dryer.

No one will be able to tell there's a film, and it'll look completely transparent after you apply heat. It was so satisfying to see the wrinkles disappear! It looks great, works great, and will save you energy! Win-win-win! " — Raymond Get a five-window kit from Amazon for $15.49 (also available in a 10-window kit).

2. And a self-adhesive seal strip that'll soundproof a room while adding much-need insulation from drafts. You'll get two seals (totaling 16 feet) that are 9 millimeters thick.

Promising review : "As a queer household we usually embrace anything not straight; we are highly open-minded and accepting. HOWEVER our crooked doorframes are the exception. Seeing our house is older than the concept of building codes and built by someone who apparently didn't believe in 'measure twice cut once' we were happy to find a cheap solution to the straight-up breezes in our kitchen! Severely cut down on the amount of wind coming through and improved the temperature in the mudroom in.
