How big is your shop?
I have a two car garage and when its pretty cold I fire up two of these on high and it heats the garage in about 20-30 minutes. I got them at Costco for much less than the Amazon price. Then again I'm not heating from near 0 temps. I'm heating from the 30s-40s.

My shop is 25' x 35', 11' at the eaves. Nothing massive, but nothing all that small either.
I've actually got a natural gas plumbed heater in the shop, complete with thermostat and everything. It'll heat the shop up to 70 if I want it.
It's not *that* expensive to run, but can double the heating bill if kept on for long periods of time (i.e. keeping the shop above freezing for the month).
It's somewhere it the mid-single digits right now, and I just had it at 40* while Sam (zluster) was over. It'll make it more comfortable to work by far, just takes time to get it up to a temp worth working in.
