50% discount on Scotrail travel - Book by 21/10/07

I am looking to travel from Dundee to Edinburgh tomorrow and back. The cheapest way is to split the journey from Dundee to Inverkeithing then Inverkeithing to Edinburgh. However as it is tomorrow I am unable to collect ticket for Inverkeithing to Edinburgh part as it is not allowing me to collect Inverkeithing ticket from Dundee station. Is there any way around this apart from getting of the train in Inverkeithing and getting the next train? According to the drop down list there is not a fastticket machine in the Dundee station.0

Thanks to the OP I've got myself a few trips booked at half price :j .
Thank you :T.0 -
:T Thank you OP and also to creepylittlemonkey, I managed to get railcard discount and 50% off! This has saved me over £100 on journeys I was already taking anyway (such as £6 brighton to london return and £9 brighton to stansted airport!!) so I'm really happy!

Thanks OP and creepylittlemonkey!
I hope they honour the railcard discount + 50%!0 -
Thanks as well OP and creepylittlemonkey!
Just purchased tickets for 2 journeys I need to make in the next few weeks and saved £80. Was planning to drive but with the 50% discount why not let the train take the strain.....0 -

Open a new browser window/tab and use the link in the first post. Add any journey (doesn't matter what it is as you'll delete it later). Make sure you don't select a railcard, and again go through the process to the shopping basket page.
This page should then show both journeys and each will have the 50% discount applied to it. Delete the second (non railcard) journey and continue to payment.
thank you cheekywigit for this offer :j
:j thanks worked like a charm creepylittlemonkey

Has anyone who got charged full price - not with the 50% it said on the payment screen - been refunded yet?
