Where can I buy a decently priced heater for my room?
Basically, my roommates don't like it when our place is hot and have a tendency to prefer lower temperatures than I am comfortable with. I find that I wake up in the mornings and don't want to leave my covers because of the cold. I've tried increasing the heat at night so that when I wake up it's nice and warm, but somehow the thermostat always ends up being decreased... So thought to myself that it would be best if I were to get a digital tower heater for my room; that way I can stay toasty regardless of what my house's temperature is set to. My only problem so far is finding a store close to school that has what I'm looking for (I've checked Home Hardware) and I can't think of any others at the moment.
Any help is appreciated, thank you in advance!

I have the same issue, there is very little heat in the house I live. I do have a tower heater which is great for warming up room instantly, however, I can't keep it on all night long as i wake up with headaches for some odd reasons. The room gets EXTREMELY dry.

Good idea, didn't think of that. There is also the Home Depot in the meadowlands, and Sears at either Eastgate or Limeridge |

i got mine from walmart, it's a sunbeam tower heater and i love it .. .comes with a romote too and i don't remember paying very much for it
has different settings and a thermostat so you can set it to stay at a certain temperature and be on for a certain amount of hours
costco is also a great choice to look - the accept returns any day so if something happens 2 years from now as long as you have the receipt and the box they'll take it back
