As per title. I really hope it doesn’t get to this but with the energy crisis I figured this is probably relevant again.

Kmart and Big W have cheap options. Please leave some for the homeless! But if you’re really struggling tents can be had as cheaply as $13 with the next rank up being $39.

It goes without saying, please be careful about heating inside your tent. All of the warnings about fire hazards and carbon monoxide apply. Stay safe.

Yes, I use tinfoil for hot weather. Bubble wrap and blankets over the window are also good insulation. This is a good one.

Weather stripping is also quite cheap and easy to put on windows and doors. (I’ve only done my doors)

And a rolled up towel or door snake under the door
