Was there tokens to be cut out for this offer?
Having read the t and cs I'm not sure whether there are paper tokens you need in addition to the password.

Thanks.

Having searched a few other forums have found this;

'Bookings must be made at least 7 days in advance, online only, but you need to take a voucher from the newspaper when travelling. One voucher is valid for up to 4 passengers, another voucher will be required for more than 4. Maximum of 8 people per booking transaction.'

Again this is from another forum so I could be wrong.

Hi,

Does anyone know of a way of getting this return below £50? 4 adults, travelling on the 2nd (leaving by 2 at the latest) and back on the 4th (leaving by 4 or 5 at the latest)

Thanks!

Would help if I mentioned the month... February

Plenty of Advance Singles on those dates/times at £11 per person each way.
The downside is that they are only available on London Midland Trains so will take longer than Virgin... over three hours each way... needs a change of train.

Hi,

Sorry if I'm being dense, but the cheapest I can find on the London Midland website, purely searching for London to Liverpool is £216 for four. I would assume that if it was £11 each way, I should be able to see an £88 fare?

Thanks!

Once you have done your search there is a box 'show other routes'. Click it and there is an option of London Midland trains only. Two options actually - I think both work

There's also a £98 (total) walk on fare return fare on some LM trains

Don't forget, London Midland do Groupsave (4 for the price of 2) - so that would be £49 for a return for 4 people - buy on the day.

How about £20 return?!

Megabus.com does cheap train tickets Mon-Thurs - they're still on the regular Virgin trains and totally direct, I've got them from Liverpool a few times.

For the 2nd Feb you can get a seat on 13:48 Virgin train from Liverpool for £9, arriving in Euston at 15:56 so £36 for the four of you one way.

For the 4th Feb, the cheapest direct train on thetrainline.com is the 12:07 from Euston, for £30.50.

So that'll work out £39.50 return each.

If you wanted to go even cheaper, and didn't mind making one change on your way back, you can leave Euston at 11:46 and pay only £11. When you do a normal search, click the link near the bottom which says there may be cheaper fares on slower routes. Chose the £11 advance single.

So there and back for £20! Bargain or what.
