right. needed a ticket from Blackpool north to preston.
Wanted it open return, so it would be cheap.

Man said that wasnt possible as the stations were too close together.

Made me buy two singles.

Is this right?

Yes
It's only long(er) distance journeys that can have open returns.

any way to get a return cheaper on a short journey?

Nope, not for a one off trip anyway
If you were arsed you could use nationalrail.co.uk to work out just how far from Preston you had to start from to get an open/saver return, if it's not too far away you might save a few pence but not much.
