Many of us live in rural areas. I drive minimum 50 miles round trip to grocery shop or do anything else. And many of us are on fixed income. $80 a month is a hard hit. I'm paying more than double what a tankful cost a year ago. And thank goodness we don't depend on oil or gas to heat the house. And gas prices are only part of the story. Grocery prices are horrible.
I don't know what the people here do who have to work. Most of them commute, some 75 miles or more one way.
Pellets are more convenient but wood is cheaper if you can find someone to deliver. Wood also means we still have heat and can cook when the power goes out.

Can't shop at the grocery store and fill you car up on the same day!
Check on Liheap, we have dual fuel Liheap pays for 90 percent of our propane and the electric heat that I have to use upstairs.
They go by your income and amount of people in your house. Its the only assistance we currently get.
We do all our heating with pellets and wood. No gas, no oil, no electric except to run the pellet stove. Thanks for thinking of us, though.
Oh that's good. Landlord put in a very efficient propane stove a few years ago so we don't have to fill that often.
I have been looking at pellet stoves, but doubt I will replace once we buy the house.

Both are more work than gas or oil.
