Question Best way to reduce extreme glare on glossy monitor

[kilo24]

I have a Samsung monitor with a glossy finish that has really bad glare (examples

), and after fiddling with every setting and making the room extremely dark, not much has helped. What would be a good way to solve this? I've read about monitor hoods and anti-glare films, but money is tight and I don't want to blow it.

Although maybe you can buff the screen with some sort of cloth to dull the glare?

Those are out of my price range and don't include my screen size (24")
