No need to wait for GM to chime in... It's all the same, anywhere you get it.

I always go to break time at home because the 89 octane is the same price as the 87. At school I go to Mobil because its the closest. Either way I always run fuel additive that gets me about 10 percent better mileage.

I've been running Pilot because there's is the most consistently cheap. For example, 87 is $3.29 at Sheetz near home and the town I work in, and $3.09 at the Pilot and BP stations that are midway between work and home. Pilot gives about the same mileage- might be slightly less, but for the price difference, it's worth it.

7-11 And Sheets surve straight chit! I used to go to citgo for the 93 with the suped up hatch back, but Southern States has the cheapest usualy so I stop by there if I'm on that side of town otherwise I go anywhere.

Not true, and Gas Man is going to give you a verbal bitch-slap for saying so

I think he said chains and affiliates all have the same stuff and use the same infrastructure. So maybe Pilot and 7-11 and Citgo all have the same stuff, and Sheetz and Shell and BP have their own stuff. Not every name has different stuff.
