Gas and oil
I think I read somewhere that if you wanted to skip the mixing of gas and oil then you could just use 90 octane. . . Is that true? If someone could find out that would be cheaper and easier than mixing my own.

Completely untrue. Don't do it. Oil lasts a long time, and isn't that expensive.

GEEZE!
Not mixing oil will make your engine into a roasted pile of poo in seconds.
