Well you could just replace the belt(s)... If you don't want to spend the money on those, spray the belts with some silicone spray lube with the car at idle.

I could also be the belt tensioner going. I happened on mine. The bearing was shot. I bought a stock replacement one. I think it was like $50 or something like that.
