Yes, here I am posting again! :)
I am trying to figure out the best way to travel to York from London and then back again a day or two later. In purchasing tickets, are there any family deals? And I would like to use our rail ticket stubs to get the "two-for-one" deals on attractions in London. Can anyone tell me what the exact requirements are to do this? Thank you!
Trip Advisor forum has useful guidelines

You won't be in London when your train tickets are valid so I can't see how you can use your train tickets for the 2-for-1 offers. However, if you buy a travelcard for travel within London then that would be valid.
Yes there are family deals if you do end up going back and forth from London to York but you'll have to do the math. My son's family bought a Friends and Family Card at the first train station they went to in London for £30. You can't order this card online. As they were buying their train tickets ahead of time online months in advance they always said they had the card. Once there they purchased the card before their first train journey and saw a tremendous savings (they were going to and from Oxford and to and from Edinburgh). You'll have to do the math though for your travel situation. Here's the link about the card and its savings. You purchase your tickets on the Virgintrain link already given to you.
