not much but technically yes..
I'll use the 2:1 ratio from above, and today's Actual Gas prices from the station at which I work.(and Yes, we only get regular and premium, the Mid is blended by the dispenser)
We (and most stations in our area) have a 30¢ Spread between grades, and it's all E10.
as of 2pm today,
Reg:$2.959
Mid:$3.259
Prem:$3.559
(don't forget gas prices always end with 9/10ths of a cent)
so on a 15gal tank(makes the math a bit easier), you'd need 5 gal of Premium (93), and 10 gal Regular (87)
5*3.559=17.795
10*2.959=29.590
29.590+17.795=47.385
vs
15*3.259=48.885
48.885-47.385=1.50
1.50/15=.10
so in that scenario, you'd save $1.50 overall, or 10¢/Gal.
