Not seen mention of these yet....

Virgin are offering fares at £3 / £6 & £9 to / from Manchester via this link:

I clicked on that link & my browser wouldn't even open it. Anyone else think anti Virus software causes more problems than it solves?
Anyway, this is Virgin we're talking about: their special offer tickets are usually only available in single digits. The sooner 2012 comes around & they get tossed off the franchise by their big red ears, the better.

Odd - that's the same one that I posted.....but mine doesn't work?.....

I note these are Manchester to Euston. Can one get on and off at, say, Stockport and still use these cheap tickets?

just buy a ticket in advance from some random shack nearby (e.g. CHU or HTC, etc.) to get out of the barriers
