Winter Heating



A week or so ago I received a letter from Irving Oil Company. They are one of the big players in New England’s energy mix. Irving’s generally the company I use when gassing up the car or filling the heating oil tank. 


The letter was about their price protection plan. It’s supposed to lock in the price for the season and let you spread out payments. So I log onto their site and use the direct link to the program. The link is dead. After poking around site the protection plan page was eventually found. In big letters it stated the program was unavailable in my area. Since they sent a letter about the program in the mail it seemed like a sudden reversal. 


Currently heating oil is running about $5.50/gallon. If the oil company thinks it’s too risky to lock in a price like that we are in trouble. What do they know that the rest of us don’t? 


Looks like my plan of only heating a third of the house and doing it with wood is still in effect.

  1. No company in their right mine would even consider future price guarantees with the current crime syndicate infesting the White House. As long as the criminal commie left is in charge prices for EVERYTHING will keep rising and availability of fuel will keep finishing.

    2. Pedo Joe is just the face of the beast. There are thousands of commies who have insinuated themselves into positions of power where they can attack u, the country and our freedom. The Fed Reserve is totally controlled by the left and it's ntheirmpolicies first an foremost that cause inflation....along with t he penchant all politicians have to spend money like there's no tomorrow. And eventually there will be no tomorrow.
