All that work just to save a dollar or 2 a week, not worth it, just stick with 93.

It's no work at all. I keep the receipt in the console between the seat. When I pull in for gas I just look and see what the octane was from the last fill up. The bottom line is that I am keeping a 91 octane rating or higher in my RX. I like saving a dollar or two a week even though I can afford to do as you suggest. When I play golf I love finding other golfer's lost golf ball. If I see a penny on up laying on the sidewalk I will pick it up. I guess it just how you are raised. No problem. No work. No worry's.
