Once, just once a kindly salesman in a national auto store branch let me have the 1 litre at the same price per litre as the 10 litre drum I was also buying.
    Stop in at a reputable garage? (If such things exist) and they should siphon you off enough for cost and maybe a 6pack of VB?
    (Or XXXX or Fosters I suppose, depending)
