    What's the issue?

    We've all had hunger pangs on a long motorway journey with no food in the car. Often the only solution is a horribly expensive service station.

    What's the offer?

    The Great Motorway Secret is a book giving directions to superstores minutes away from the motorway so you don't have to fork out sky high prices at service stations. Plus it lists cafes, toilets and petrol facilities.

    There are more details of the book here thegreatmotorwaysecret.com.

    And if you don't manage to get a book there's another website

    If you don't manage to get a copy you then the website 5minutesaway.co.uk, it is an online directory of facilities 5 minutes away from motorways including hotels and pubs. So all you need to do is print off the info before you set out.

    What to do?

    I've been given 10 copies to give away to MoneySavers. All I ask is that the winners come back and rate it on its MoneySaving power and usefulness.

    If you're interested click in the box at the bottom of this thread, type "yes please" and then click send to post the message on the forum. I'll pick 10 people at random. You need to be registered on the chat forum to do it (go here).

    This is not the same as signing up to the email (that's separate). It's completely free and your details aren't used for anything else.

  • If you want to save some money (over motorway service stations) and enjoy good food and drink, the Good Pub Guide 2005 also contains a list of pubs close to motorway junctions. The listings for each pub include instructions of how to get there too. There are so many poor pubs around that I think that the best deserve recognition and are certainly getting my patronage when I am travelling around. I've not been disappointed yet!
