They take at least 68p duty before tax so it's more than 50%

119.9p/litre on last fill up.

I had a 5p/litre off voucher, taking it to 114.9p/litre.

I thought "ooohh, nice and cheap".

I saved £1.70

Exactly - it just shows that a price increase from 114.9p to 119.9p doesn't really make too much difference, imho.
