Price of ethanol free gas bums me out - just paid $3.35 in Cambridge Md for 87 octane, while 10% ethanol is $2.89. I suspect it should have a price premium attached, but that seems excessive. I guess they will charge what we're willing to pay...
I live right at the borders of NY, NJ and PA and can be in all three states in a matter of minutes. Although I can't buy Non Ethanol fuel any more I do see price fluctuations worse than what you describe. In NJ 87 octane is $2.70 and in NY the same brand is $3.40. We have to go to one state for fuel and another for groceries and yet another for clothing but we do have that ability due to geographic location.
