I want to buy about a dozen pieces of polystyrene foam board to tape
to my windows/doors/fireplace as temporary insulation for the season.
Home stores sell them: 1.5 inch x 2 feet x 4 feet for $4. This seems
pretty expensive, consider this is what most people throw out after
unpacking a boxed product. OK, the ones sold by home stores have an
extra plastic sheet (vapor barrior) and R-factors printed on them. I
can live without these extras.

Where can I buy foam boards at lower price? I don't need the vapor
barrior or R factor.



are you planning on not seeing out of your windows or getting any light in?

Why not construct wood frames with a sheet of clear plastic stretched over
it,to fit into your window recesses as a "storm window"?
