The day I became too old for a Young Persons Railcard was a cold, dark day here at Thrifty Towers. Not only was I old but I wouldn't be getting discount train fares for years unless I popped out some small folk or turned 60 overnight.

Two Together Railcard

Previously railcards had only been available to those under 26, armed forces, those over 60, disabled passengers or those travelling with children.

National Rail have gone and pulled a blinder by launching the first new railcard in 30 years, to fill in the gap. Enter the Two Together Railcard, designed for two people (be they a couple, friends, family, work colleagues etc.) travelling together, costing just £30 per year.

This new railcard is for two named (and pictured) passengers and allows for a third off adult fares when, as the name suggests, travelling together. You can use this new railcard on Standard and First Class Anytime, Off-Peak and Advance tickets after 9.30am weekdays and all day across weekends and bank holidays. For further details about this new railcard click here.

You can pick up a Two Together Railcard at any staffed National Rail station or online here.

TTFN,

P.S. Do you use rail cards to reduce the amount you pay on trains?

When I mentioned Mr. Thrifty and I were buying a house I had heaps of comments, emails and tweets asking for mortgage advice or about the ins and outs of securing finances to buy a house. 

To be honest when it comes to mortgages I’m as clueless as it comes and as a result, I have found house buying incredibly stressful. With that in mind I’m teaming up with Gocompare.com for a mortgage discussion on Twitter where I’ll be desperately asking for mortgage tips and tricks and you can join in too!

If you’re just getting started with mortgages, interested in bagging a better deal or considering moving up the ladder Gocompare.com’s mortgage expert Matt Sanders will be on hand, along with London and Country to answer your questions.

So if you’re clueless about mortgages or just want to know more, join in with the #GoCoMoneyTalks Twitter chat at 8-9pm on Wednesday March 12^th.

How to join in:

- Leave your mortgage questions for our experts.

- Make sure you're following me @AThriftyMrsUK and @Gocompare on Twitter so you see the whole discussion.

- Show up on Twitter on March 12th at 8pm.

- Use the hashtag #Gocomoneytalks to tweet mortgage tips and questions.

And to get your new home in tip-top condition Gocompare.com will be giving away some Ikea vouchers!  All you need to do is leave a mortgage question for Matt at the bottom of this post or email gocomoneytalks@gocompare.com, in the days leading up to the chat and you could win 1 of 4 £20 vouchers. One winner, who has retweeted the twitter chat invitation and followed @Gocompare, will also win a £20 Ikea voucher. And keep your eyes peeled during the chat as there will also be 2 chances to win a £50 Ikea voucher so you can go Billy bookcase mad!
