    Im a regular BKK visitor & just came back last week.

    Sum Luan Night Bazaar is still open. Packed as ever. Though the decor stuffs are very nice, the price is not so nice. Very touristy area. MRT stops at Lumpini.

    Jatuchat. Shoppers paradise. I would advise one to start as early as 10am before the crowd gathers. Avoid going on sundays!!!! Its a sweaty body-to-body nightmare!!! Things are cheap & will be even cheaper if you know how to bargain. Me & wife bought some Thai bolsters, a teakwood Buddha face deco, some lights & some stuff. Very cheap!!!!

    For chabors - shopping for cheap clothings, visit Platinum Mall. Aircon environment. Cheap if u buy a lot. Diagonally opposite of Platinum is Pratunam centre. Another Jatuchat, hot & stuffy. Guys can forget about this 2 places as its mostly gals clothes, accessories, shoes, bras & lingeries.

    Instead, guys should head to MBK. One word, quite good lah......the top floor is the electronics heaven. HP, DVD, laptops, ripoffs etc etc

    Makan - plenty. For the adventurous, go for the roadside stall. One word - we had 2nd helping. Phadthai, meatball noodles, grilled meat, river prawns & chicken, banana prata, u name it, we ate it. What stomach upset? If its good for the locals, its good for us too.

    Or visit Chinatown for their seafood. Not so cheap but its fresh. No particular restaurant i can recommend.

    Massage - cheap, clean & satisfying. Head & shoulder massage is only 180baht per hour. Fell asleep on the bed.

    Word of caution - DONT TAKE TUK-TUK. Con men, all of them!!!!!!!

    Cheers

    hey man dont just judge by the price (cover) because there can be hidden costs crawling up ur bill later

    do a little bit of research read recommendations, choose companies that have been doing these for quite a number of years, because these companies are those which wont jeopardize a few thousands for ruining their name

    my 2 cents :) good luck bro

    hey guys if u're in BKK and wish to buy stuffs, but cant bring it back can head down to Pratunam go to this courier service called TAC just at the main road from Baiyok Tower 2.

    but can be quite expensive, maybe around $10/kg. but by air.
