We're [paying $2.30 a gallon for propane since we only use it for cooking gas and have a small tank. I found a place that agreed to sell it to me for $1.29 per gallon if I buy my own 500 gallon tank. I've been thinking about doing it along with installing three or four non-vented 30K BTU heaters - for backup. They're just about 100% efficient. As far as heating oil goes, I just bought 500 gallons a few days ago at $1.35 and that's the highest I ever paid. Taxed, at the pump (A.K.A. diesel) is $1.79. Sometimes, in the spring, Agway offers deals if you prepay, for farm-fueloil. Last year they offered oil for 75 cents per gallon - I should have bought it.
Next year (I think) I'm going to install an outdoor wood boiler. I'm still researching it a bit, though - they seem to be quite inefficient. Plus side is you can heat several buildings with one fire and also heat the domestic hot water. What I don't like, besides the initial price, it that it needs electricity to run.
