The monthly city commuter ticket is a good price in the long run:

It costs €55 for a month.

TO get a city bus twice a day will cost €3.20. A month is approx. 4 weeks which means you'll be spending €64 and that does not include weekends when going into town.

So you could be saving about €10 a month.

You don't need any bus. Within walking distance of UCC, town and Wilton. You could use the 8 if it was raining though..
