Assuming you also turned your central heating way down, your space heater might save you money. Another option is to get a humidifier. Humid air feels slightly warmer than dry air. Helps your skin and nasal passages too. But you would again need to turn down the thermostat to see a savings. And you don't want to overdo it to the point that you get condensation on your walls or all over your windows dripping down to the sill.
