Combatting cold wind

Many mornings I find myself debating weather I should ride on cold, windy days. My hands are the biggest issue. Even with mittens (I wear "glittens actually), my thumb and fingertips feel like they're on the verge of frost bite after half an hour. I once purchased "windproof" cycling gloves; they absolutely were not windproof.

I've heard that some delivery riders wrap plastic bags around their hands to fight the wind. This seems quite practical, but I'm wondering if their is a less tacky way to keep my hands warm. My budget is around $30. Thanks for your input.
