Today, Saturday - Birmingham, AL - down US 280 going southeast from
Interstate 459 - in the area of Inverness, Raceway stations were
$3.99.9/gal while all others along that stretch were $4.19.9/gal. Some
stations did not have regular unleaded. Others had ONLY the 87 octane
unleaded with 10% ethenol.
