Generally speaking, electricity is the most expensive "automatic" heating energy source. This may be due to the fact that fossil fuels (oil, gas, wood, etc.) can be burned right where heat is needed and electricity is often produced by burning fossil fuels, producing electricity, then delivering the energy to remote locations before it is actually used.
Heating oil is typically cheapest to purchase during the summer months when demand is lower.
Oil heating is a form of fuel which is an alternative to electric powered heating. More information about oil heating can be found online on Wikipedia.

Heating oil is ussually provided by heating oil companies. Your best bet to save money would be to either join a co-op or shop around for the cheapest provider that offers price lock. You can also see if you qualify for energy assistance.
The price of home heating oil depends greatly on location and oil speculation. I would recommend checking online for local oil delivery companies. Many of these company's websites will be able to provide you with an online price quote so you can easily compare prices to find the cheapest heating oil available to you. Prices may be more expensive if you have to request an emergency heating oil delivery.

Also it is not possible for something poked into the oil filled electric space heater to touch the electrical heating element wires as is possible in standard electric space heaters (which would shock you).
Companies that offer cheap home heating oil supplies include Dewitt Petroleum and Union Plus. Other examples of these companies include Aeroenergy and Petro.
Oil core electric skillets are top of the line! the heating element is encased below the surface and submerged in oil to provide even heating across the entire pan surface. Ever see that burn ring on the surface of a old standard electric skillet? Very uneven cooking.
Well, friend, finding the cheapest heating oil can vary depending on where you live and the current market prices. I encourage you to reach out to different heating oil providers in your area and compare their prices. Remember, it's important to consider not just the cost, but also the quality of service they provide.
