Consider factory rejects or incorrectly built windows.
Rob Roy (author of Earth Sheltered Houses) suggests that you can go to a window manufacturer and purchase windows that were built for a job and didn't work for some reason, such as being the wrong size. If you're fairly open in your building plans, you can work some of these inexpensive windows into your build rather than paying for custom windows to be made. Incidentally, Rob Roy does a lot of the work himself in his book and has some excellent pointers on how to do work yourself that is relevant to castle building. Among the subjects he covers, there is information on foundations, how to insulate foundations, and proper drainage to preventing water from seeping into a cement wall.
