It is going to be very cold this season for many, many families. I wonder how many freepers are going to jump on them for living outside their means? Type II has become VERY expensive in recent months. I’m trying to stock up now; but I simply don’t have the disposable to bring the price down any and am stuck buying 100/200 gallons at a time..When the dead of winter hits, I will be burning five gallons a day. Depending, on the average when I eventually get filled up, I could be looking at thirty dollars a day to keep my house warm (read warm enough that we won’t require coats, just sweatshirts..).
My last bill was for 350 gallons, and cost me $1,100.
I do conserve, turning down the heat to 65 during the day, when I am not at home and only turn it up when I get home to 70 until I go to bed, than I turn it down again to 68.
I also have a small electric heater in my living room.
