As someone who used to work on a store, it doesn't take that long. It can be done in a single evening with maybe some overflow to the next morning. (Besides, not all cars can take E10, especially those made pre-1980. There should be a sign so these older vehicles can avoid using E10.)

For now, I'm only going to the Gasoline stations. They cost 10 cents more, but give me a full 300 mile tank, and that's important to me.

BTW read the "blending your own fuel" thread.
E10 is perhaps the WORST POSSIBIBLE blend.
Most cars do better with something more than 10%, but less than 45%.
I saw that. Don't understand why 10% would have lower MPG than 45% since 45% has less energy.

Also my 1987 car probably has rubber seals. The E45 would probably eat a hole through them.
