Do you use premium gas?

I've been told this too and I do think this is true, that is, motors run better on higher octane fuel, especially the smaller and higher reving engines. That being said, I'd like y'all's opinion on this issue:

If you only had one choice--either put high octane fuel in your car OR non ethanol fuel (87 octane) in your car, which would you choose? Ideally, you COULD have both, but it'd be real expensive gas. So, if you can only choose one of the two options, which way would you go?
