I don’t think it’s premature to ask this...
In the foreseeable future, I’m going to be back in the office for a couple of days per week. My journey to work involves a couple of TOCs (Merseyrail and at least one of Northern/TPE/EMT) so I don’t think that a flexi-season will be available, and a full season probably won’t be cost-effective. So return tickets it is then (or conceivably advances if I can be organised enough about getting up in the morning and leaving the office to hit the right trains).
So the actual question is what is the best source of tickets? In the past, various TOCs have offered Nectar points or similar or appeared on Topcashback - but who currently gives the most reward for buying through them? And as a side issue, do I have to get credit card sized tickets or can I use a ticket on my phone or printed off on to a piece of paper for my journey (starting on Merseyrail)?
