  Lowes and home depot both carry additive free gas in the lawn mower section ( very costly cans ).

It's cheaper to go to your local municipal airport and buy some airplane fuel, i.e. ethanol free, high octane gasoline.

My next door neighbor goes once every few weeks and takes about 20 gallons worth of cans for his lawn and garden equipment and dirt bikes.

I don't give a damn myself.  I've yet to break an engine despite abusing the hell out of all of them and exclusively using 10% ethanol mixtures.  Disclaimer: the fuel does have Stabil added to each 5 gallon can as I DESPISE rebuilding a carburetor and am not going to empty the tank of a piece of equipment after each use because I don't know how long it might be before I use it again.
