I grew up with $20 walmart blenders, and hated anything that required a blender.
Recently bought a ninja and there is no going back. I’ll never use a crappy blender again.
Anything else like that?

Gasoline?
Probably a poor selection, or some who drives a “performance” vehicle for pleasure, or possibly an older vehicle The only real thing to concern yourself with is that there has has not been sitting for a long time (weeks/months), but any popular station will have multiple deliveries a week. Get the cheap stuff. If you feel guilty you can run a cleaner and dryer through the system occasionally, but modern consumer vehicles are pretty well designed to function efficiently on a range of gasoline-based fuels.
The additives in top tier gas will keep your engine running better longer.

Hmmm… nice, thanks for the link.
Edit: After looking through the article to see who’s best, they list pretty much everyone. Am I missing one that is NOT a tip tier gasoline brand?
Convenience stores that sell gas usually buy it from wherever cheaper. 7/11, Wawa, Quickcheck. Not sure if same applies to anywhere outside US, though.
Also local small brands may not sell top tier gas
I’ll admit that the list is longer than I expected! I didn’t see 7/11 on there, and they definitely sell gas. I also don’t trust those little run down privately owned gas stations. I’m pretty surprised to see Arco on the list. There’s gotta be a difference between Arco and Chevron. I feel like I can feel a difference in my car when I use one vs the other, but I guess that could be a placebo effect. I usually just get Costco gas for the awesome savings, but if I can’t for whatever reason, I try to stick to Chevron or Shell. I suppose I can broaden my list a little.
You also want to avoid stations that take a long time to pump. That means they’re not changing their filters at the required intervals, and old filters can fail. Plus, if they’re not even caring for their filters, who knows what their tanks look like?
… Yeah just buy the grade you need not the “expensive” one, it’s a commodity!
That would be bad. Only use the gas that is recommended for your vehicle, as putting the wrong type will cause the engine to run less efficient or eventually cause problems.
That’s what I mean by “the grade you need”. If you need RON 87 don’t “splurge” for 93. It’s not better its just different and more expensive.
