Locked in our propane at $2.90/gal I believe, on the budget program to basically pre buy 800 gallons with the cost spread over 12mo. Works out to $250ish per month I think (lots of bills changed these past few months so I may have screwed that up). Much better than paying close to $1000 every few weeks in the winter, though. Just in the month of December we refilled once (300g tank, so about 200 gallon of propane delivered).

Have also burned about a cord of wood in our wood stove so far this season. Wood is free from our land (although I did buy 1.5 cord this year due to having a kid) Main heat is baseboard/hydronic.

House is 2400sqft, about 400sqft of which is a newer addition with vaulted ceilings. Woodstove is in the addition so most of the heat gets trapped in there with it being an addition with high ceilings.

All zones set at 65 but addition and first floor are 70-75 when the wood stove has been running for a bit. Second floor is always 65.
