Yes, absolutely loads cheaper - in fact possible to get to Limoges without tolls at all - we did last year!

Calais, to Boulogne, off the autoroute at Boulogne, and on to the D901 which takes you to Abbeville, Rouen, Evreux, Dreux, Chartres, Orleans (OK small toll of around 3 euros to get around Orleans) then Orleans to Vierzon on the N154 (or pay a toll if you want to and stay on the A10), and then Chateauroux, Limoges on the free A20.  We managed an overnight at Vatan, between Vierzon and Chateauroux - but could have gone further if we'd had an earlier start, and stopped later - we arrived there around 3.00 pm according to our photographs!

I personnally like toll roads :-s

I find them free from clutter and a great opportunity to make up time. For going to Limoges we always avoid Paris and head via Rouen and onto either Le Mans or Orleans about only 15mins difference between these two I've found. From meomory Orleans is the cheaper option.

Enjoy whichever route you take :-)
