Absolutely...and then get an extra tankfull for me...it will be a long time before that price comes around again...if ever.

We have automatic delivery/contract with a small company who promised us 20 cents/gallon off the "going rate". the last price noted at this link:

NYSERDA - Weekly Average Home Heating Oil Prices (http://www.nyserda.org/Energy_Information/nyepd.asp - broken link)

was much lower - has heating oil risen that much in the past few days ??
any thoughts/comments appreciated. I expect to pay a bit more for the service and know I can get cod cheaper, but like have convenience of the contract.

For the coldest month from mid jan to mid feb my gas bill was 220. that is equivalent to 53 gallons of heating oil at your price. When I lived on LI I know I went through 200-220 gal a month for dec-jan-feb.
