Our Verdict
We just saw a BOGO sale for Mother’s day, so surprised to see another one so quickly. These don’t work on saver fares, so might be better to wait for the 30% off sale.

This is valid only for Northeast Regional service between Washington, DC and Boston, MA.
Maybe this should be part of the subject line.
you missed “ (and within)”
Also, only available for Saturday travel. This is more like a regional bank bonus. Lots of caveats that would have been helpful in the heading or early in the post.
Must purchase by June 15. Started May15.
Meant 6/5
Book May 15-June 5, you just have book by May 15 which already passed.
