Strange prices

Looking to travel from Rugby to Birmingham International tomorrow (saturday), returning on Monday.

The prices seem to be £7.10 for an off peak virgin trains only return ticket, and £6.10 for an "Anytime" virgin trains only return. Which seems a little strange. The off peak one is less flexible but more expansive.

Am I missing something here?

The £6.10 is an Anytime Day ticket - so less flexible than the £7.10 Off Peak Return in some respects. The Anytime Return Virgin Trains Only is £8.50, and there is an Off Peak Day Return Virgin Trains Only is £5.40, so it all makes sense.

Ah right that makes sense, thank you.
It didn't seem to make that very clear on the website.
