New to Oil
We just bought a new house that has oil heat (unfortunately...and no gas in the area to convert). I grew up in a house with natural gas and our house before also had natural gas. We just got a brand new oil tank delivered yesterday so now we need to get a fill up.
Do I just call up oil companies to price shop? I'm clueless. Thanks!
Any companies you suggest or that I should avoid?

Yep, start pricing them out. I think there's a website, but I don't remember it. Decide if you want a service contract or not. That will ensure someone from the oil company comes 24/7 if something goes wrong. If you do COD then you'll need to keep an eye on your oil levels and call someone to deliver when you need it.
We locked in for a year with Slomins. We paid something like $130 for the service contract and locked in $3.49 per gallon for the oil.

Re: New to Oil
I used to use codfuel; until I found discount-fuel.com.
They are ALWAYS cheaper than any of the oil companies listed on COD. And if you "like" them on FB, you get $10 off any order.
Here are their prices as of today:
Gallons Price/Gallon
25.0-49.9 $4.539
50.0-74.9 $3.539
75.0-99.9 $3.359
100.0-149.9 $3.259
150.0-199.9 $3.239
200.0-249.9 $3.189
250.0-299.9 $3.185
300.0-399.9 $3.179
400.0-499.9 $3.179
500.0-999.9 $3.159

Thank you! I actually got it for a penny cheaper per gallon than listed above. I'll be sure to compare with this website when we need a fill up again...and get the FB coupon
