Do any of you own some type of oil heat? If so, how much do you usually pay. My parents have had oil heat since I was a kid and now I'm considering switching over. I just want to know what to expect in bills, etc.....

Do you like it, how well does it work... etc?

Several friends in PA have oil heat and were kicking themselves this winter. The high cost of oil have driven the price of filling their storage tanks through the roof. It was so bad, one of my friends who was a stay-at-home mother had to get a job just to afford the heating oil.

They all chose oil heating because, at the time, it was the cheapest way to heat their homes. Now they are kicking themselves for not using natural gas.
