Notice how in almost all cases on this list, while there may be savings
for singles and peak returns, the cheap day return is more expensive.

Furthermore, none of these illustrate the rail-tube-rail fares where
the fare rises are pretty steep for cheap day returns - e.g. Clapham
Junction to Finsbury Park (zone 2 to zone 2) goes from £4.40 cheap day
return to £7.00 cheap day return, Orpington to West Hampstead (zone 6
to zone 2) goes from £5.50 cheap day return to £9.70 cheap day
return.

The cheap day return fares are completely pointless though as a travelcard
would be cheaper. So the actual price would be £4.90 for CJ-FP and £6.30 for
Orp-WH.
