Stations selling pure gas?

I've been advised in person and seen cautions on line to look the pump over carefully to see if the station sells pure gas, or gasohol. So, standing at the pump of our local Sunoco station I scanned everywhere to see if ethanol was listed as an ingredient.
It wasn't.
Even so, I asked the attendend when I went to pay for my gas. She didn't know off hand so she opened a drawer and pulled out the cert slip that was left by the tanker after their last delivery. It showed a 10% mix of ethanol.
I've read that an e-10 mix can have as much as 20% ethanol in it and be legal and it concerns me that the oil companies may be selling higher mixes of gasohol to achieve higher octane levels which essentially result in less energy and lower fuel economy. If I'm going to burn alcohol, I expect to pay less per gallon since it costs the stations less per gallon.
I've searched the web, but other than Shell, what brands sell pure gas?
