Get the £12.80 Southern-only ticket to Victoria.

And walk from there? If there's any onward travel involved a Travelcard
will be cheaper (off-peak).

However, you will have a fixed departure time for the return trip so a
ticket tied to a specific train would be much more practical and wouldn't
cost more than £10, maybe only £5.

Maybe. I'm finding that it's more and more difficult to buy Advance
tickets [in general, not for Southern] for some times of day, for the
cheapest prices, and if not months in advance.

Not that I'm surprised at this particular bit of frog-boiling from ATOC.

(Apologies to the OP if that last sentence is incomprehensible).
