Make a fabric bag into a "snake" shape the width of the door and stuff it with old rags, or whatever to block cold air that comes under the door. . . . For windows, I use the plastic sheets that come in Window kits from the hardware stores as they aren't expensive and are fairly easy to put up. I do find, though, that the adhesive tape the kits include can be hard on the paint or varnish - just a caution to consider.
