I've always found I get decent mileage with Shell. The V-power is guaranteed not to have ethanol (although may not be ideal, depending on your vehicle).
I use the Safeway in town from time to time, but it's filled from the Shell tanker. Not sure if that applies for all safeways or not.

I believe that as of April 1, ALL gas now must contain 10% ethanol ....
Another misguided attempt to be "green"... its been kept really quiet, but I think it went into effect today.
EDIT: It's actually 5% .... which is still moronic.
