Default Re: Space Heaters = Energy savings?

Our experience, with old wiring, 12 foot ceilings, and the old heating systwem being big grates in the floor that get hot: space heaters, used very judiciously in one room with the doors closed, resulted in our electric bill going up to $350 from $75. I would be very wary. We used the "good" kind, supposedly. I wear sweaters.
