Could be a couple of things. First, even though you "top-off" the gas each time, the car may have been tilted a little in one direction or another at either fillup, meaning that the first fillup could have gotten more gas than the second.
But, all other things being equal, I commonly saw low 30's in my 95 900SE for highway driving. I drove the length of Pennsylvania on the TurnPike once, stopping only to fillup as the gas stations. That type of highway driving with little or no change in MPH gave me up to 34 MPG. It was only when I started to use the turbo or changes in acceleration that it dropped to 25ish.
