Default Best place to buy good gas?

I've tried a few different gas stations to try and find the best fuel, I only buy 91, and wanted to know what brans/station does everyone else use?

I was wondering this too a while back, then I noticed that the exact same fuel truck went to all 4 of the gas stations in my town so that pretty much gave me my answer. I'm sure you live in a lot larger place than I do so I'm not sure..

I always go to Safeway. Is a grocery store but they have recently started selling gas. I figure all of their tanks are brand new so there isn't any crap in their tanks. If I'm on the road I go to Chevron.

Depends where you live I guess, but I go to Bp here. They actually have conventional non-reformulated gasoline there.
Almost every station in this state sells 93 octane.
