My local sources for pure gasoline are dropping out as we speak. None of the remaining ones know when they will be cut off from their suppliers. The ethanol merchants got smart and got EPA to approve a change from 10% to 15%, and the congress-mandated blending will take place at the refinery instead of the "splash-blending" now being done at the tank farms. Oh well, we can always buy the 40-mix or 50-mix at $20 to $26 per gallon......

Try a marina, racetrack, or airport. Get a metal drum or jerry can(s) with an airtight seal for storage in a cool place.

100LL is about $5/gallon right now

There's a fair amount of pure gas still available in MN; we have lots of lakes, lots of off-road vehicles, and lots of demand for it even if it costs more.

Funny thing, though, is that sometimes even the stuff that's supposed to be E10 doesn't have any E in it.

Bonus!

Easy to test, even without a fancy kit. Glass olive jar, eyedropper, and water. If the gas will absorb a little water, it has E in it. You'll have to use graduated test equipment if you need to know how much, though.
