Ideal Home Show 2008: 2 for 1 tickets if you go by train

18 March 2008
What's the deal? If you're planning to go to this year's Ideal Home Show, there are a couple of offers that'll get you 2for1 tickets at selected times. Adult tickets cost £14 each on weekdays, so this is a considerable saving.
How can I get it?
- Got an Oyster card? (14-21 March only)
Flash it at the box office and you'll be entitled to 2 for 1 tickets. The offer only applies to tickets between 14 - 21 March (inclusive). If you don't have an Oyster card, or you're planning to go outside this timeframe, see the offer below.
- Going by National Rail? (Weekdays only)
If you're taking the train but don't have an Oyster, the railways' days out guide website's also running a 2 for 1 promotion. To get it, go to the promo page, click 'claim your offer' and fill in the form. Now you can print a voucher which'll get you 2 for 1 when shown with a valid rail ticket at the box office. This offer's available throughout the show's run (14 Mar - 6 April) but excludes Saturdays, Sundays and Bank Holidays.
Of course, even if you don't go by train there's nothing to stop you nipping in the station and buying a cheap ticket for a couple of quid, so you can grab the deal and save a quick £10.
Neither of these offers can be used in conjunction with any others, and are subject to availability.

Similar offer with your train ticket too - go onto www.daysoutguide.co.uk and there is a bogof offer on there too. You just need to print a voucher off, show your voucher and train tix on the door (although they don't usually ask to see them tbh) and that's it.
Lots of other bogofs on there too - theatre (went to see 'Chicago' in London yesterday on this offer), restaurants, attractions etc - Martin did a piece on this site last year too - if you are lucky
you might find it with the wonderful MSE search facility that we (don't!) have!

I couldnt find where to put this code online either so I called them up (0844 415 4144) and quoted it over the phone last week. It was accepted and the tickets arrived on Monday

Hi - I don't know if this reply is coming too late for you, but I wanted to know this because I am going with my mum tomorrow and she has a freedom pass. I emailed daysoutguide.co.ukand they said that you can. I printed out their reply just in case i get any hassles. In fact they were very helpful and replied within 5 minutes.0
