Thanks for posting - has anyone any idea which dates the tokens will be printed?
Click to expand...

Just been out and got 4 copies of today's Yorkshire Evening Post - token is on page 26.

Apparently tokens will be printed every day up to and including Saturday 8 September.

See link in my earlier post for list of participating newspapers - seems to be pretty much most of the local papers in Yorkshire and the North East.

I'm sure i'm missing something with the Northern offer - is it basically a Ranger for the entire Northern network for £10 plus the tokens?

Has anybody had the £10 from Redspottedhanky from The Telegraph offer yet? When it eventually arrives, will it show up in the evoucher section or the loyalty points section of the website? Thanks.

From Money saving expert yesterday,

CURRENT EUROSTAR DEALS

ONLINE
Eurostar £59 return sale
Online only
What: £59 return Eurostar standard tix Get by: 11.59pm Sat 15 Sep 2012
How: Eurostar's cheapest tickets are £69 return, but can run into the hundreds. But for travel this autumn loads of journeys are available at £59 return – pretty hot bargains.

To find the cheap tickets, book online at Eurostar* and once you've chosen your destination (Paris, Brussels, Calais or Lille), choose the number of tickets you need within the '26-59' age bracket. Eurostar confirms adults of all ages should use this box and there won't be any problems regarding age when you get there.

If £59 returns are available, you'll see £29.50 singles, though you must book an outbound and inbound fare to get the sale price. There's more chance of finding a £59 ticket for journeys during the week, but there is availability for weekend getaways too. It's best to book early as these tend to get snapped up quickly.

What do I get? £59 return Eurostar standard tickets from London St Pancras, Ashford or Ebbsfleet to Paris, Brussels, Calais or Lille.

The detail: You must travel between Tue 18 Sep and Wed 19 Dec 2012 (excludes school half-term Fri 26 Oct-Mon 5 Nov 2012). The offer's on standard non-flexible adult return tickets and they're subject to availability.

There's a max of nine people per booking and a £4 credit card fee. This deal can't be used with any other offers but can be combined with other hotel or car hire promos.

You can collect tickets from a Eurostar terminal or print them at home by clicking the 'print-at-home' tab during booking. Check in at least 30 minutes before your departure.

Yes to the Telegraph £10 one but no the Facebook £5 one as yet.

It'll appear as a £10 evoucher with an expiry date of 31/12/2019.

Without the link this doesn't appear to be very useful...

Having said that EC have a habit of only allowing the offers for those they have sent the e-mail to. I have two registered accounts with them and they do not get the same promotional e-mails.

I also had the link but cannot find out (on their website) if a break of journey or stopping short is banned. Instead I get a an error message.
Anyone able to confirm either way as £12.50 to somewhere short of Edinburgh would be good and I would even buy a ticket to somewhere else if needed.
Otherwise a ticket to Leeds and change there works for me.
