Huh. I've checked three different brands at Home Depot and Lowe's online, and all of them have several reviews saying that the product used to be great, but that the ones sold this year don't stick -- the tape doesn't even stick to the film. I can't find a single positive review for any of them written this winter. Interesting.
Whoa! I... I think I'm having a thought. Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's a thought. Now I'm having a plan. Now I'm having a wiggins.

Usually the adhesive is just narrow double stick tape. You could just buy some better tape.

OK, I'll give the plastic a try. Much cheaper than the curtains. I'll venture to Home Depot tomorrow. (I hate Home Depot. The people who work there always treat me like I'm stupid.)

Do you have an Ace Hardware? Those tend to be smaller and nicer people in our town.

There is an Ace Hardware, but it's on the other side of town from the bunch of other places where I need to go tomorrow afternoon.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
