Block heater

since I got married, My 2000 Pontiac grand am..sits outside in our Minnesota winters...while the wife's work car...has the garage

So, the factory block heater...
Can it be left plugged in, does it have a thermostat/ shut off that would keep it from running around the clock...
and if it does run continuously...will I have to take out a loan to pay for the electricity, or is it a low watt heater

Only have a problem when the temps are below zero, which in Minnesota...is about 4 months
