Going through my old receipts it looks like it was £10.38 for 3 separate day tickets, at a time when a day ticket was £3.75
I wonder if they will offer such a ticket again in the future...
I would like to see GNE introduce a multiple day ticket discount, it would be an incentive for passengers to loyally travel with them every day they go out, rather than buying a day ticket on Arriva or Stagecoach. Admittedly as you sometimes need a particular operator to go to a particular destination it won't always work, but I think something between a day ticket and weekly pass is sorely needed. Bus operators appear to rip off the occasional commuter, only caring about regular bus users or charging infrequent users every day for a day ticket, which soon adds up.

EDIT - infrequent bus users and quite frequent bus users, but not 5 or more days in 7. Bus fares are certainly not fair!
