I saw the ad yesterday and called today, but they say I need a promo code from the ad, and I don't have the paper. It may have also been the Contra Costa Times. Please help I have one day left to order. Thanks!

See this website and put in your email. It might help.
I think you should try to find one of the heaters that are sold at all the Home Depot stores, Sears, etc.
I have one I bought from Walmart 2 years ago. THe ones they have now are nicer. My heater part isn't working. The artifical flame still looks good. I paid under $200, but it was smaller and looks like a mini wood stove. It's cute.

To heat a sunroom, what is best, gas fireplace or electric heater?
Oct 25, 2007 by terryc84
There is an older natural gas fireplace in the room, and I also have a new radiator looking filled electric heater. Which would be cheaper and more efficient to use to heat the 14 by 14 sunroom? I won't be heating it all the time, just when it will be in use? OR would it be cheaper to just leave the door open between the sunroom and house, and let the forced air from the furnace make it's way out there?
The ductless system would be great, but they cost $$$ to buy and install. If you're not using the room frequently, your payback on the ductless system won't be worth it.
The space heater you describe would do a fine job as long as you remembered to turn it on well in advance. They take a while to get going before they even start heating the room.
If the gas fireplace is functional and safe, it would probably be the best choice for intermittent heating. It'll start cranking out the heat as soon as you turn it on and should warm up the room quickly. If the fireplace hasn't been used in a while, I'd strongly suggest getting it checked out before firing it up.
