Hi.
I just want to pass along a tip regarding fuels, quality and prices for at least the St. Albert area. I have no idea regarding other Coop gas stations and as you will read it appears there could be some variability regarding ethanol and where the source of the fuels between gas stations across western Canada?
This was the price of fuel at the Coop gas bar at the St. Albert Trail location (~135 Avenue?) late last week:
So what I noticed and is not in this picture, is THIS Coop recently changed their information at the pump. A couple of weeks earlier the premium was marked as "ethanol-free". This information was removed so I contacted Federated Coop to find out if their premium is still ethanol free. This is Ms. Totland's reply to my questions:
Dear Mr. B.,
Thanks for taking the time and writing to us! We really appreciate your support of our Co-op.
Thank you again for your inquiry and support of the Co-op!

Based on price and quality of the fuel I will continue fuelling my daily drivers at this Coop as much as possible. And I will monitor this web page (and the pumps) for any changes to the addition of ethanol: Top Tier Gasoline.
Hey. All I hope is this information is helpful to someone else? Coop is my alternative to extra high costs at Esso and is 100% western Canadian.

- Do all grades of your fuel come from Saskatchewan or Alberta refineries?
- Is the premium grade (still) ethanol free? My high-performance car recommends zero ethanol.
Thank you again for your inquiry and support of the Co-op!
