Until 30th September 2017, you can bag a £5 railcard discount off ‘Family & Friends”, “16-25”, “Senior”, or ” Two Together” passes.

All you need to do to get the discount is head over to the Railcard website and enter the code SOUTHERNSEP17 into the promotional codes box:

You don’t actually see the discount until near the end of the process, but it works fine:

The £5 discount brings the price of all of the following railcards from £30.00 down to £25.00 for a year:

16-25 Railcard – 1/3 off Standard Anytime, Off-Peak, Standard Advanced and First Class Advanced fares, for anyone aged 16 to 25, or over 25 and in full-time study.

Two Together Railcard – 1/3 off Standard and First Class Anytime, Off-Peak and Advanced fares, for two named people travelling together, aged 16 or over.

Family & Friends Railcard – 1/3 off for adults and 60% off for kids on most rail fares, for up to 4 adults when travelling with up to 4 children aged 5-15.

Senior Railcard –  1/3 off Standard and First Class Anytime, Off Peak and Advance fares, for anyone aged 60 or over.

If you are eligible for a railcard and likely to spend £75.00 or more on qualifying rail travel in the next year, it’s worth taking advantage of the offer. I used to love my 16-25 Railcard – it saved me £100.00s!

Cashback?

TopCashback is offering some decent rebates at the moment too:

I don’t know for certain whether using the discount code will stop the cashback from tracking properly, but there’s no harm in trying!
