First’s Winter Promotion

First SouthEast are currently running a rather obscure promotion which will allow you to buy a 3-zone day ticket (e.g. for travel between Dunbar/North Berwick and Edinburgh) for £8.50. This compares with the usual price of £9.50 for a FirstDay ticket or £10.50 for a standard return from Dunbar. The promotional tickets are only available on the bus and you need to know to ask the driver for them. The promotion runs until 16th January.

Note that on the trains an off-peak day return from North Berwick to Edinburgh is only £5.70, and the peak fare is £9. For Dunbar a standard day return by train costs £9.40. Not sure that First’s promotion is so special after all…
