Never noticed Premium, of course. Save-On has three kinds of gas: 87, 89 and 91. I know--we went there today and managed to get 500 bonus points--we're on our way to that barbecue! ;) Anyhow, you just have to get to the right pump (I'm talking about the Calgary Trail Save-On, btw). The end pumps only have regular. The middle pumps have the choices. The regular pumps don't show the octane but the others do. Daisy
