Smile New Gas Station at Pinellas Plaza now open
Gas price is $3.359 for 87. Not bad for the convenience.

Rumor had it that they would have Ethanol Free gas. Is that true?

Thanks for the info. I heard on the radio this evening the grand opening is Saturday. Free hot dogs so I guess there will be multiple lines around the block. :-)

Yes, only the pumps on the west side (closest to Walgreens) of the station have it. It's labeled Recreational Gasoline. Today the price is $4.21.9 vs. $3.35.9 for the ethanol blended.

many stations that have non ethanol gas choose to have it in the premium octane gasoline ........just like at the marinas.

Very few have the lower octane available.

Having just returned recently from Californis where we were paying $4.75 per gallon for the lowest octane.....Just across any state line it drops a minimum of $1.00 per gallon.

I am not sure what the professed attraction of CA is......

I just got gas there, 87 octane is $3.29 with cash and $3.35 with credit card, there are two prices on the pumps. They have 16 pumps. They should have a real goldmine there.

It is about the tax structure and has zero to do with the EPA


VERY happy to have a choice in that area other than the Colony Shell and traveling 25 miles to get ethanol free!! :-)

Whatever the reason, it's still a rip off.
