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.
