I check cashheatingoil.com every day and today it's down to $3.77g for 100+ gallons. This is down over a $1 in a month with a continuing downtrend. I just wanted to share this information as it might be a good time to fill up.
I paid $5.20 a gallon in central CT on 11/16. I realized after that another place was $4.60 a gallon. I’ve done my biz with that company for 20 years but not anymore. That difference was $110 for the amount I received. I’ll be checking daily prices for the rest of the winter and keep checking oil prices.
Sadly, loyalty only benefits the seller. Not the buyer.
In most cases if you notify your company (not just limited to oil) they'll price match.
If not, it's easy to jump ship. Most companies know this and will generally work with you especially if you're a long term customer.
I'm willing to bet this is the same company that tried to deliver to me on 11/10 at $5.99 a gallon, lucky I was home to tell him to not.
I recently paid 5.80. Ouch.
You must be FFD or NH county
$4.38 around here
I could order for 3.89 on purplefuel but this would break my service contract. My usual provider is 4.59. Prob be about $150 difference. There is some peace of mind having the service contract but over the heating season that’s prob $500 difference easily

How is it always worth it? Sounds like it’s clearly not worth it in the above example.
When you furnace shits the bed on New Year’s Day and it’s zero degrees out, having a service contract benefits you. Good luck getting someone to come out when you don’t have a contract with them.
Okay, so it’s worth it in exceedingly rare cases. Sounds like an expensive insurance policy you’ll likely never use.
Paid $3.81 today through Citizen’s co-op. Fairfield County.
Just filled up at $3.65 today. I am really pleased with this recent drop in pricing!
McKinley Oil in Cheshire was $3.98 this morning, which is really a decent rate for a local place.
Still seeing 4.39 for my area
Check Forbes in East Haven - always the lowest around
Yup thanks to Joe he brought the prices down. Lowest they ever been.

Anything above 2$ is nuts. They make price astronomical and then lower it a little to 4 to make people think they're getting a "good deal" when you're still getting totally screwed
That’s not how any of this works.
Nuh-uh, commodities and goods are valued at what I decide they're valued at and that's the last I'll be hearing out of you about it, mister.
