I got a shock when I visited my "local" Home-Mart Store here in Jomtien recently and found the regular Water Bottle supplies totally depleted - since then, other Items like Bread, Eggs and even Beer (mainly Chang) today were "temporarily out of stock".....
A least the Shops here are benefitting from the influx of Bangkok People....

Considering Home Mart is a builders' supplier, I'm not at all surprised. Did it have any bags of cement?
