Quit going to starbucks, quit smoking, fast food, candy, etc..
I can go on and on about saving (according to your figures) $12.50 a month.
Risking detonation on my mercedes?. No thanks. If your car does not show detonation at 4+k rpms with 87 octane, your engine is running too rich, and is wasting gas.

no starbucks, etc.... i do my own work...and drive my car normally... if i ever heard detonation , i would move up...
