...radiators or radiant heaters in the home appliance sections of department stores.
They are a bit of a specialty item for most stores but I know places like SEARS get them in every winter and may keep some stocked year round.
One thing to be very cognizant of with them though is that there is a massive variance in energy efficiency between different models/brands so be sure to do your homework before you buy.
Also while they are about the best thing available for space heating do keep in mind that they are a fire hazard if flamables are in contact with the metal ridges(that the heated oil is in).
As long as you make sure not to leave paper or other flamables in contact with the metal your safe.
Last time I bought one the price range for single room/large area models was arround $50-150 if memory serves me correctly.
