Note that it could be cheaper to use Groupsave, which is a BTGTF buy 2 get 2 free offer. We travelled to London from Basingstoke as a group of 4 adults last weekend. 2 for 1 cannot be used for a One Day Travel Card (which includes Tube) whereas Groupsave can. The helpful guy at the ticket office in Basingstoke pointed this out. It was about £38 for the 4 of us.
