I know many will be travelling down the M5 this year so a couple of places to get Supermarket fuel close to the M5 in Devon & Somerset.
Junction 25 Taunton, at the motorway roundabout head into Taunton, at the next roundabout take the 2nd exit & the the 2nd exit at the next roundabout. This will take you to the Sainsbury’s fuel station, there is also a Starbucks, Pizzahut, McDonalds & Costa close by - the fuel is normally cheaper hear the at the next stop at Cullompton.
Junction 28 Cullompton, take the turning into Cullompton & head down the hill, 1st exit at the roundabout at the bottom of the hill & the Tesco fuel station is on your left.
Hope this helps you all save some pennies.
Does anyone else know of supermarket fuel close to motorways.
 
Junction 2 , M5 there is an Asda. It's self service card only and usually a low price. It's immediately off the junction
 
M6 Jct 17 Asda petrol station 100 yards from J17, A534 toward Sandbach.

M6 between J15 and J16 , A500 is a dual carraigeway all the way between the 2 junctions (and is often as quick as the motorway and is the same milage) - Large 24hr Asda with petrol station at Woolstanton (signposted as Newcastle-under-Lyme A527) 100 yds off A500- there's also a large M&S on the same site
 
1. Jct 29 M6 just South of Preston there is a Sainsbury's PFS barely a mile away just off the M65 link spur - A quick glance at Google maps will make sense of that for those interested. Fairly easy to get there and return to the motorway.

2. Jct 17 M60 North Manchester there is a Tesco PFS 200 yards down the road on the right towards Manchester (Part of a retail park).
 
Have a look here gang. It's what we use.

M5 Exeter main junction heading westbound take 3rd exit, then right hand lane. Go straight through first traffic lights then turn right at next lights, at next roundabout take first exit and Tesco fuel station is right there.
 
A38 bet. Exeter and Plymouth.

Junction signed Newton Abbot and Bovey Tracey.
Turn left to Newton Abbot. 600yds at roundabout, take third exit, (second exit is a park home estate.)
Up that road, pass Select Motorhomes, (Simon Select would sulk if I didn't mention that) and on to Trago Mills.

It's worth the one mile diversion. Last week, derv was £1.369 a litre.

Instead of heading into Taunton and the Hankridge Farm Sainsburys off J25, take the A358 towards Yeovil and London, it can be a pain as it is a 30mph speed limit for a fair distance but it then goes into a dual carriageway, sticking to the left hand lane take the left slip road at the top of the hill just before the traffic lights. Immediately on the right is Thornfalcon Garage (and Somerset Motorhome Centre). It's a one-way system in/out of the garage so you need the second entry point to go in, sounds long winded but its not really, the fuel is usually cheaper than Sainsburys AND they have an LPG point which again is usually the cheapest (if not the only) one in the area.
Two words of warning, there is a mobile speed camera vehicle regularly set up in a lay by on the 30mph section (my one and only speeding ticket - a Sunday morning before 9am - 34mph!!) And there can be long queues going to both Taunton and Thornfalcon off the motorway in the summer.
 
M6 J36 Kirkby Longsdale. Canal Garage, Crooklands, Milnthorpe. This is traditionally a HGV bunker fuel station, has good access, fast HGV pumps or normal forecourt pumps and decent prices. Also has LPG for anyone wanting to top up Gaslow etc. or HGV and LPG, turn to the right and go around the back of the building.

Good choice ,but be prepared to queue for a while as very popular price wise.

Come on down towards plymouth and at Tesco Lee mill just a 1p difference per L to trago ,no queues
