MrsQ:

this is quite a cheap day for me - on top of that there's the 250B room at the guest house that needs paying + more food and internet later.

Off the booze today so that saves some cash - overdid it (again) last night on the whiskey.

Nothing in the middle of the desert and I dont bother asking the wife what she has spent. But I have worked out how to save money in Thailand just dont go to the bank as it doesnt seem to mater if I go to the bank or not at the end of the day the wallet is empty

[friscofrankie]

45 - baht pack of LM dang
Woulda sent the ol' lady but they charge her 46

[colourful-era]

how come she has to pay 1B more?

[friscofrankie]

how come she has to pay 1B more?

dunno man, Guess I'm friendlier. The ol' lady rarely goes to the local mini mart and i'm ot even sure they know we're together. The common price is 46 the wife there would charge me 45 the husband 46. couple of weeks later the husband 45 the wife 46. There's a mini mart another 50 meters downthe road sell 'em for 45, got tired of not hving exact change, so I started walking by them. recenty went back now the wife and husband are n the same price 45.
They always wanna chat for ten minutes about the US vs Thailand or the weather I sit and BS with 'em sometimes I'll freeload a meal. I'm part of the neighborhood now. The ol' lady? they don't know her from adam, plus she's not real talkative, 'cept when I'm trying to work.

5B for some kind of Thai snack.

Usually the other way round though - ie: rip the farang off

We get the ciggies cheaper because they want to see us die a quick and painful death.
