Just run another stat up stairs and switch to that one at night.
We had a nice balmy 16F this morning, breaking a string of 17 consecutive days since will not down below zero before midnight. We just got snow of 0.4" that meant nothing and not like the ice and snow problems in the SE part of the U.S.
We have been protected by the polar cold and not really appreciable snow or ice since keeping below zero even for highs lead to the "winter blahs" were there are no real problems except black ice in the morning since the main roads and streets are bare. - Now we may be entering the warming & melting season that is more challenging to live with. I had my SUV washed 2 weeks ago and it is still spotless and there are no droppings on the floor. I will take "crunchy" snow to warmer snow.
The lake golfing on the ice is doing well, but usually carts and cars are not allowed even with good ice.

Bud, with a programable, it wouldn't take long to figure the temp to set for night to keep the upstairs compfortable.
If every winter was like this one I might just be looking into a missile silo. Woke up this morning to a really nice warm bedroom and thought ut oh I bet its cold out. -9.9 f and falling still.
After getting ready for work I closed the damper on the heat duct 90%. Will see how cold it got today?
I hear the silos make a great house but look out with moving walls around. The government spared no expense with rebar in those 2 ft thick walls.
