When Ray is running from the tripod, he leans up against a store window. Later he throws an slice of bread with peanut butter on a window. Both times it seems like the window was plastic rather than made of glass. Anyone else notice this?

Yeah I noticed how the 'window' bent when leaned upon, killed my immersion a bit and there's really no excuse for it in a production with this kind of budget.
It looked like a shaking wall on the set of some crappy tv show.

Is that because the windows seemed to flex?
My guess is that in the world of movie props, unbreakable plastic windows would be preferable, because broken glass on the set is a problem they don't need. They would be lighter to handle also.

The story is king.
