Well, gasoline doesn’t really have just one freezing temperature, and in fact, gasoline isn’t made out of just one kind of molecule, but many different hydrocarbons.
Different components have different freezing temperatures. The alcohols might freeze first, and some of the aromatic hydrocarbons freeze at very low temperatures, below that of dry ice. The fact that they are all mixed together also depresses the temperatures of onset of solidification.

I know several people who've bought no-name cheap gas and have had problems during the Winter.

Don't really know much about it as in the UK we don't have cheap gas, we only have regular 95RON and Superunleaded 97RON
