Southern Daysave tickets ?

[Bold Seagull]

The Southern website will sell you a Super Off Peak Day Travelcard (Group Save Fare) for the Charlton game at £33.80 for four adults (£8.45 each).

Thanks, I know what's been messing me up, from Portslade that same ticket is £57.40 (groupsave TC), whereas from Brighton it's £33.80. So somehow the system adds £23.60 for the 4 of us to get from Portslade to Brighton return (which of course is only £6 for the 4 of us as a groupsave for that journey). Mental.

Obviously will buy the Brighton rate and get separate tickets for Portslade to Brighton.

Think of it as the train operator paying you £17.60 for the time you have to spend on the internet, searching for the best deal.

For some reason, I'm immensely satisfied by the fact that I once discovered that the cheapest way to make a return journey from Glynde to London Bridge on a weekday, with an arrival in London before 9.00am, is to use my railcard and buy an off-peak day return ticket from Glynde to Rugby (where - for some mysterious reason I can't fathom - the railcard and the off-peak discount are valid for the whole journey). Everytime I do this, I save £1.95, compared with just buying a ticket to London Bridge.
