Frost King?
so my apartment is insulated about as well as a convertible and since the roommates like to keep the place around 75 degrees I wanted to try and keep the heat in to save some coin so Anne and I went to Lowes and I bought some SHRINK FILM INSULATION KITS from the frost king I get home and try to do the window on our first floor that you can feel the wind cutting through so I read the instructions and follow them perfectly first thing I did was put up the double sided tape then waited 15 minutes so its sticky and the damn film wouldn't stick to the tape what kind of company sells a product that consists of two things one is shrink wrap the other is double sided tape that doesn't stick to the shrink film? so I had to duct tape the stuff up and I'm not even sure how much its keeping the place insulated the box says up to 90% more R value but if I have no R value to start with what am I at now? looking back I would buy a sheet of 1-1/2 foam board and just shove that in all the windows then duct tape some 6 mil poly instead of this shrink wrap BS Frost King? more like Frost Queen because its worthless

C'mon Maintenance Man...get creative. Good job reading the instructions, but sometimes, you have to improvise. You can figure it out. I know you can. Hell look at you!
