    Hi guys, looking for some advice as to which ticket is best for me to use money wise.

    I'm a student with a student leap card, use Dublin bus 6 days a week (Mon-Sat) anywhere between 2 and 6 buses per day. For the past few months I've been getting a 30 day rambler (€111.50), which suits me fine, but should I be topping up by €20 per week instead and using the capping system instead? From rough calculations this would save approx €120 per year, am I missing anything here or is this the better option?

    Many thanks :)

    If you only use the bus 6 days, then your rambler ticket will last 5 weeks but if you are using the top up /cap option then 5 weeks will only cost €100 and you will also be able to travel for free on Sundays. No brainer really.
