Petrol Honda CR-V on urban commute - worth using premium fuel?

I drive a 2013 4WD Honda CR-V, with a 2.0 litre petrol engine (manual). My daily commute is 7 miles each way in urban / suburban traffic. I drive carefully for economy and have averaged 36mpg since purchase a year ago. With this car / driving style / type of use, do you think I'd see much improvement in MPG by switching from standard supermarket petrol to Shell Fuelsave or V Power Nitro?

Fuelsave won't make much difference but you could see maybe 3mpg improvement on V-Power Nitro Plus if you use the improved torque at low revs to change up earlier.
