The cheapest way is a Daysave ticket for 10.00, unfortunately you
need to book 7 days in advance so it is too late for this trip.

Some Tourist Offices sell the Daysave on the day.

AIUI the only place that sells Southern DaySave tickets on the day is
the 1 Stop Travel shop in Brighton (run by Brighton& Hove buses) -
furthermore only the 1 Stop Travel shop on Old Steine, not the one at
Brighton station - more info:

Incidentally a ticket that goes by the name of DaySave is sold at
some
tourist offices, but it's the separate FCC Thameslink route DaySave -

(Worth noting that the 1 Stop Travel shop on Old Stein also sells
these on the day too.)

Eastbourne tourist office sell the DaySave tickets on the day. It
would
seem likely that Southern would have other outlets.

The Eastbourne web site says 'agents such as...'

Thanks Derek, didn't realise the Southern DaySave was available
anywhere else apart from the 1 Stop Travel shop in Brighton - be
interesting to know what other places sell it too.

We did have quite a big discussion about Southern DaySave on
uk.railway around this time last year, when the availability of said
ticket at 1 Stop Travel came up but no-one offered any other outlets,
so I had wrongly assumed it couldn't be purchased over the counter on
the day anywhere else.

I'd never heard of this either (my office overlooks the Old Steine,
BTN so I quite often end up using on-the-day DaySaves ) - the wording
clearly implies there could be other outlets but i've never come
across any.


My thought is that there must be London outlets.

I E-Mailed Southern and they replied:
"However, most tourist information offices in the area, such as
Eastbourne as you mentioned and Lewes and Hastings. I belive that the
one stop travel shop in Brighton is the only other outlet that you can
purchase these tickets on the day"
