I use "windproof/weatherproof" gloves from Kohls when it's wet too. About $8. These take me down to probably about 10 to 15 degrees F.

When it gets properly cold, I use "hunters" gloves - blaze orange, they're basically cheap ski gloves with thinsulate lining. < $10 at the department stores around here during deer hunting season. That's when I got my high top thinsulate lined, camo colored winter "riding boots" too. I've ridden with the hunting gloves down to -25*F, and at that point my fingers were getting a bit nippy but at that point I have more things to worry about, like having to use a neoprene face mask to avoid frostbitten face.
