			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignright" style="border: 0pt none; margin: 5px;" src="http://reliance.org/images/LogoLeft.jpg" alt="self reliance" width="436" height="160" align="right" />Is your home heated by Oil?  If so than you may have noticed that the oil prices are just rising and rising and it seems like there is no end in sight.  I myself have a home that is heated by oil and I cannot believe how much the price of oil has gone up in just the past few months.  According to my Oil bills I was paying $3.09 per gallon of oil back in February and now the price of my oil is $4.55 per gallon.  That seems like a very large increase in just a few months.  Luckily for my family we have a wood stove that is installed in our living room and we decided to start using it this winter to save money on our heating.  I know that not everyone has the convenience of having a wood burning stove or a real fireplace in their home, but if you do, take advantage of it and use it on cold days.  We have saved over $1000.00 in heating oil these past few months alone by using our wood burning stove and it has nice ambiance as well.  Not to mention that you can cook up some s&#8217;mores after dinner too!</p>
<p>In addition to using our wood burning stove this past winter we also joined the local Self Reliance Oil Cooperative which is located in Hyannis.  I was told about this program through my oil company believe it or not.  I was in paying my bill and I mentioned how oil is getting so expensive and they asked if I had heard of the<a href="http://reliance.org/"> Oil Co Op in Hyannis</a>.  They gave me their website address and I checked it out.  The great thing about Self Reliance is that anyone can sign up!  You don&#8217;t need to qualify and you don&#8217;t need to show all kinds of documents.  You just fill out their <a href="http://reliance.org/">online form here</a> and send it in with a check for just $30.  It is really that easy.  Then the Oil Co Op lets your oil company know that you are signed up and you get a better rate on your oil.</p>
<p>You can be located anywhere on Cape Cod and sign up for Self Reliance and enjoy their many <a href="http://reliance.org/">benefits</a>.  They also have better rates on: Biodeasel, Solar Power, Wind Power, Arbella Auto Insurance 5% Discount, Long Distance Calling Benefits and some more.</p>
<p>By joining the Self Reliance Co Op in Hyannis and spending just $30 for the entire year you will save hundreds of dollars guaranteed.  So, sign up today and start saving, I did!</p>
