Ten years ago, I was paying over $350 + per month in the winter, I'm now around $ 150 or less and there are independent deals available from various suppliers {using my existing lines} which are less expensive {but you need to monitor them every month}.
My heating bills are about $2-3 thousand less per year than they were 10-12 years ago {the local tax man takes my heating savings}.
Yep, neutral gas is a superb heating fuel. It is also a great motor fuel.
