Yeah, not that bad yet, at least here, $3.90. I picked up a 5 gallon can and filled it (added gas stabilizer), covid and 1970's has given me hording tendencies.
Remember when locking gas caps were a thing?
Edit: Just checked, this morning the highest price is $4.10.
Benefit from my experience.
I have been buying low for gasoline for over 30 years.
I store it in 25 and 55 gallon drums.
In a SEALED steel drum - gasoline will keep without adding any stabilizer for over 2 years.
We burned up the last of the $1.25 gas a few months ago.
In a plastic gas can - don' t overfill. 4.5 gallons in a 5 gallon is best. Keep the lid tight - and it will keep for a year. No stabilizers are necessary.
Edit to add - Saturns use a sealed fuel system.
I have ran cars with gasoline in them that was over 3 years old. No problems. No octane knock.
