Chicago Winter and Drafty Windows

HI BP Nation, 

How do you handle old drafty windows?

This is tricky, for I can't assure to completely seal the old windows. Maybe I can offer to pay for some materials. I would gladly pay for something like this:

What have you done with your tenants living in vintage places?

Thanks, 

Frank

I used them when I was a renter - I never thought of asking my landlord to pay for it
