It has all changed. Most former Shell Stations are now Circle K. and that seems to be over a wide area.
Some will report it is all the same so use whatever is cheapest. The truth as I understand it is it all flows through the same pipe. The brand difference is the detergent package that is added at the end. Which is best? It is hard for the average consumer to prove-we do not drive the same trip, same wind direction, same speed.
Unbranded gasoline, such as Walmart, Circle K, shopping clubs. Reality you do not know what you are buying. They like you are doing will buy whatever is cheapest with no effort toward quality.

PUBLIX has that deal now til 2/6. Spend $50 and get a $50 GAS GIFT CARD for $40. Any GAS CARD they happen to sell. That's like a $.70 discount per gallon.
But only if you were going to spend the first $50 there anyway.
