Some bean counter must have seen that they were leaving money on the table.

Reg here is $4.32 and Prem is $5.12

Around here, we essentially only have 10% ethanol (except 1 place). reg - premium is usually up around a $1. (maybe 80¢ or $1 or in between). Our gas is 87 89 93 octane. Honestly, I rarely even notice the cost of gas, so the difference could vary a lot or hardly at all.

Wow, aren't you fancy. Around Houston, I think there's only one gas station where you can buy ethanol free gas, Buc-EEs. We are 10% ethanol everywhere all of the time.
The regular to premium spread is around 90¢ ±20¢, and it's all 10% ethanol (I think last time I checked regular was ~$3/gal. At Buc-Ees where they have ethanol free gas, it's about $1/gal more than and only available at 91octane. I think everywhere else sells 93octane for premium.
