Most companies around here offer a stop and fill option and trust me, you want to take advantage of that. Our price this year was $1.19 per gallon. Summer fill is $.99 a gallon.

When I first bought this place in around 05, I was up around 1200-1400 gallons, but I've replaced windows and have done a ton of work to seal up air leaks, etc. I'm legit around 600 gallons annually now, in Kansas too. Smaller house, but about 2700sq ft.
