If she's not towing, not ascending steep hills, hasn't loaded the car up, the premium is going IMO totally to waste PLUS we by definition will get less gas mileage with premium anyway.
Anyway, some drivers are just less capable of squeezing out those last few MPG. She may be driving into prevailing winds; may've timed her trips so she's getting no benefit from passing storm systems but is instead being punished by them. Or she may be buying her tankful from a dealer that's adding the maximum alcohol, whilst the tankful used when she's not at the wheel is mostly or all alcohol free.
