I bought my thermostat at Menards. It was around 40$. Plugs into an outlet and will turn on or off whatever is plugged in (heater in winter or air conditioner and/or fan in the summer) when the temperature hits the thresholds that you set. Bought it going on 3 years ago and it hasn't had any issues yet.
Sorry don't know what brand it is, there isn't anything on the item, but I do remember it was around 40$. It was in the area that the space heaters and whatnot are at.
Hope this helps.

I'm not sure yet really. Any suggestions? I was thinking either space heater or a light of some sort. Haven't really thought that one out yet but know I'm going to need to automate it.

Your best bet is going to be an oil filled space heater that has its own thermostat

I have that exact one, but for humidity. This one is specifically for temp? I'm kinda confused with mine. I just got it a few days ago. It has a temp sensor and humidity sensor. But only one port to hook an external device to.
