There is a time to be cheap and then there is a time to spend money.

Styrofoam insulation inside of a tree stand that does not have any windows wouldn't make a big difference one way or the other.

If you want to stay warm, build a fireplace and put a kerosun heater inside of it.
Styrofoam will keep your buttwarm, thus in turn allows blood in your body to flow better..Prevents numbness in legs and lower body areas
and your back. You will last longer in the stand being comfortable
using it..you really will.The most importantant thing when it comes to human comfort isn't neccessarly clothing, it's what's betwen you and
the surface or ground your sitting or laying on.If you have nothing between you and that surface or ground or a poor insulating product
heat is either being trapped or escaping,Styrofoam is the one best insulating product on the market.
You have to try it.
