    Cigs have gone down in price.

    Went into 7/11 this morning and only paid 50 baht for a pack of krong thip and noticed LM have gone down as well.

    Any reason for this.?

    Then went to Villa and bought two bottles of konunga hill for 648 baht each. which was pretty cheap considering last year it was about 900 baht.

    Snub with another blindingly great insight there no doubt? He doesn't even know what krong thip are ffs.

    Anyway - I would assume it has something to do with a pricing cock up and you being a handsome man.

    Yep. Boontard and Pseudufus are right. I live in my moms basement. I dont have a passport and have never been abroad.

    Smart guys they are?

    Lets break these nitwits down.

    One is a far right wing Jesus freak who screams about planned parenthood. The other is a total tinfoiled nutter who thinks that the world is controlled by lizard people.

    End of story.

    Well, it's clear you haven't a clue towards things Asian or Thai - yet, prance around an Thai-themed [quasi Asian-themed] forum, avoiding all banter or references Asian - remaining lost in the American undertone and references [sc/news] of TD.

    Always found this to be a bit odd.

    Not sure why smokes have gone down, used to smoke wonder, few days ago new brand out, Blue range 35 Baht a pack.
    Think it may have something to do with ASEAN, can't tax other ASEAN nations more then Thai companies, level playing field.

    I go over to Lao, no visa require, carton 200 Baht for Texas red.

    Think you may be out of luck on the wine front, not heard of decent wine produced in ASEAN.

    Indeed.

    One finds themselves completely puzzled why these posters who have never stepped foot in Thailand wax on with no abandon. In the case of bstupid, surely there's a political forum he can contribute to there on the Left Coast rather than spam this fine Thailand - centric forum?

    OZ is not a full member, any price drop would be through trade agreements, or just lower taxes on imported wine.
    Beer prices may drop, beer Lao, Carlsberg [Malaysia] Tiger etc.
    Fingers crossed, a price war would be good, drink a lot of beer here.

    Seems to me my LM dang smokes were 50 baht a pack when I left 5 years ago.

    By the way ... IMHo not much difference between LM dang and Marlboro red.

    The magnitude of the irony in this statement could be off the Richter scale.

    just found out why the cigs are cheaper, there is two different sizes in packets now, the 50 baht ones are slimmer,thought it was to good to be true.
