IL Does anyone live in the Belleville, IL area?

Does anyone live in the vicinity of Belleville, IL? I was wondering where you purchase your gas around here. I am just getting my car going after moving here recently, and am noticing that almost no place has premium(!!). BP stations are the only place I've found with 93 but I've been told that if you want to buy it, you have to go inside and tell them to turn it on (wtf / why?)

Have you noticed the same paucity of good gasoline that I have? Where do you buy fuel?

I'm actually in Mascoutah, as you can see, over there to the left << .

If you see a white FD driving around, it's probably me.

BP stations are the only ones I've seen with 93. When I tried to buy some, the pump didn't work, and I was told that you have to come inside and tell them to turn it on. I have no idea what the purpose of that could possibly be.

I put in a request to join that Facebook group. I see you are one of the admins. I'm James McDonald
