Default fuel pump problem

Ok so about 2 weeks ago I drove my car to a nearby gas station to get air in the tires. On the way there the car drove fine. I got air and then was on my way. Then on the way home, my car just stalls out on me. I`m like wtf? So I throw it into neutral (although my car is automatic at this time) and start my car back up. Starts up fine, so I continue to drive. Then, not even 10 feet later, it stalls again. This time, when I tried to start it, it wouldn`t start. Now, I haven`t driven this car more than 5 times in the 4 months that I have owned it. When I got the car, I was unaware of the 93 octane thing, so I put 10.00 worth of 89 oct in the tank to get it home. Now I believe my fuel pump is bad. When I try to start my car, it will turn but not start. I have full electrical, but no fuel. Any suggestions?

I didn't think putting shitty fuel could really kill your fuel pump, but when you turn the key to acces/on (forget which one it is, but its the spot right before you crank the car) you should be able to hear the fuel pump in the back.. Look at kyorska guy he was using nonprem fuel since he owned his gst..
