Yes, expensive. How many servings you think a Chef can make out of that 115 Baht pack and considering a kilo of potatoes in Thailand cost only 30 Baht.

With standard gross margin calculations your cheap pack will do about 100 Baht per person on the menu, depending on class of restaurant. That is way to expensive.

Imagine two people eat 115 baht potatoes, that's almost the price of one kilo of pork. Bit out of balance wouldn't you say so?

Besides, quality is not even close to home made mashed potatoes.

That 115 Baht pack will make me about 4 - 5kg of firm mashed potato.

A serving in a restaurant is about 200 gram, that means 20 -25 servings, or about 5 Baht per serving, instead of 100 Baht.

That Casino stuff must be great. Sold out of course.

Left with the McGarreth and Pfanni brands. They both come around 100 Baht per kilo yield. Now that was what I meant the expensive stuff.

If Casino yields as you say 4 to 5 kg, then that is quite attractive, average 25 Baht per kilo.

Nice as binder for gulyash soup and the likes.

Casino brand will not be available anymore in big C

Good to see the barrier did its job and prevent serious injury or death.

The driver should be banned for life from driving public transport

Not racism.....just them versus us lot..................

We took the train from Pattaya to Bangkok last week

Cost me 31 baht as an alien and the Thai wife got for free.

We both had sore aerses after the 4 hour journey.

Your wife got free as you choose to travel 3rd class.

3rd class is free for Thais , it is there for the poor and those in need.

Your wife would have had to pay if you would of upgraded to first or second with normal seats.

31 baht for a 4 hour train journey and you are moaning.

You deserve your sore arse

Thais cop double pricing in Australia, and don't whinge about it.

That is if they can even get a visa to go there.

And like in Thailand, it is not a racist thing as some are claiming, all foreigners have to pay more than the Aussies.

If a Thai wants to go to a government school, primary, secondary or uni, they must pay thousands more, not just a couple of dollars. And I reckon fair enough as I reckon fair enough that the Thais do it.

Another point is I believe that to get a work permit a farang minimum wage is 40,000 per month. So while there are many Thais who do earn more than this, most don't. Tourists, if they can afford an air ticket they can afford an extra couple of dollars.

Sri Lanka also does it. But ten times more. Went to the zoo, and two of us had to pay the same price as twenty Sri Lankans. I tried telling the ticket seller I was a born and bred local Sri Lankan. She asked to see my passport. I told her I didn't have a passport as I had never travelled abroad. She was having none of it, so we had to pay.

The post above also says it is the same in Chicago.

Another point is Thailand is so cheap anyway, I save thousands by living here. It honestly doesn't bother me to not receive the Thai discount. Going to the cinema here is about a tenth of what it costs in Oz for example. To see the same movie.

Maybe they just do it here to annoy the cheap Charlie's.

Your wrong on more than one of your points

This is a nonsense report.

There is no way a visa to enter the UK would be issued to a person "married" to an underage child even if she was pregnant.

I agree, Just look at the topics about all the hoops you have to jump through to get your thai wife a UK visa

there is not a chance of this story being true.

Works fine for me

Drinking whiskey and playing cards.

Do they think they are in the Wild West.

Lock them up and throw away the key.

Give the kid a break.

Caused another false missing person search

If false alarms keep happening people will take less notice of them.

A person who actually needs help may suffer

Not true

You would be better buying the Nescafé red from the 7 / 11 and adding your own milk & sugar. There is very little coffee in those 3 in 1 sachets just look at the ingredients on the pack

He must be the only person that understands it

I thought this business about carrying a passport at all times had been settled.

According to previous threads a copy of passport was OK as long as the actual one was produce at police station if requested.

It will never be settled until we actually know what the law is on carrying passports.

Nobody has ever been able to quote the law as there does not appear to be one, Only recommendations.

Where is the best place to watch the submarine races ?

Best place is at the race track

They are on after the pigeon races finish

Yes sounds like a scam

What did you buy from the 7 - 11

Seems none on here actually know any despite claiming otherwise

Maybe they don't know any non-sexual places and don't want to admit it. I know of a great place to get an enema, but it only serves me well.

Just use a bum gun

And who said romance is dead.

If you wait until Friday you may be able to get some cheap roses.

Yes you can get 60 days at immigration, You need to have your wife with you as well as all the paper work
