What makes more sense, heat the house or electric blanket?

Advertisements [?]

The house is pretty well insulated but heating oil is expensive. It gets mighty cold during those long winter nights; subzero temperatures and windy nights are not uncommon here at all.

So, which makes more sense, drop the thermostat even farther (below 57) and use an electric blanket or raise up the heat in the house to say 65 or so?
