I remember Dad driving across the downtown Ohio River Bridge to buy gas in
Indiana too.

Is there any place in Arkansas that sells Regular Gasoline?

Some years ago a trip took me through Arkansas both ways, and the Stations
I bought Gas at only had Gas mixed with Corn Alcohol. [ Ethanol ]

Even here in Indiana I have stopped at (Brand Name) Stations to find some
of them didn't sell 100 Per Cent Gasoline as the Station of the same Brand
near to me does.

Its confusing.

I wish there was a National Regulation saying that the Sign showing the
Price of Gasoline had to be a different color Sign for places that don't
sell 100% Gasoline.

The Ethanol markings on the pump usually are on the side, not the front of
the gas pump where I select the Grade of Gas I want.

Are You buying Gas at the Kroger Grocery Store Gas Pumps?
I've never got Gasoline at the Store.

Some months we buy more than $100 in groceries and can use the Store Card
at the Gas Station.

I have bought over 10 gallons of Gas at neighborhood Gas Stations and
got Ten Cents off every Gallon.

Example: If I put Thirteen Gallons in the tank I save $1.30 using Krogers
card.
