Bumping this thread for the new season. Anyone locked in? Best rate? Got offered $3.77 from my mom and pop place w/ free service contract and tune up. I love them. Been with them for years, local, friendly, responsive and never hound me for payment. That's worth a few extra bucks to me, but still, fixed rate matters. Watcha' seeing out there?! I've never done fixed but I've learned middle east, shmiddle east, as soon as the 1st cold snap hits, price jumps up toward $4 bucks.

The Slomins mall kiosk deal at 3.399 is the best I've seen. Locked in, 600 gal minimum (I wish!!) $129 service contract, no haggling. Of course, only for new customers so you have to go back to the BS haggling next year. My current company came back with their "great rate" of $4.08. I literally laughed out loud. "But sir, prices are going up!!"

The whole process is insulting and archaic.

I went with Petro.

First fill up was 3.39. ..not to exceed 3.78. Honestly, I didn't remember my rate until I reread this thread. Next year I will look around again.

Brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

I think im just going to stick with COD. I dont want to pay for a service contract i dont need. Do you have to use automatic delivery with these contracts? Or can you still stick with on demand delivery?

Sounds very familiar.

Good luck getting anything close to that price next year.

I'm holding out for the Slomins "black Friday" special. Usually like .25 cents a gallon cheaper than what they are offering now. As dman said you have to switch companies every year.



This is easily the best price I found without a contract. CashHeatingOil.com: Discount Heating Oil Prices in CT, Long Island NY, NJ, PA, RI, MD, MA and Westchester, NY Has anyone used them? The reviews look great.
