  1. Makro......Meat, vegetables, condiments, pastas..........Fruit - market......Other food stuff Lazada and Shopee taking every discount under the sun when buying......Grab Panda app orders on occasion also making sure to get the discounts..... Food does not need to be expensive....
  2. Has any one here made note on the amount of taxes a farang pays on a condo per year? If they pay at all?.......Its like 100 baht a year or some other very very very low amount.........Real estate taxes in Thailand seem to me to be insanely low compared to the west..... If they ever decided to get the Real estate taxes working in Thailand they would bring in many Trillions of baht...... Taxing retired expats living off a fixed pensions would have to be the most unproductive and fruitless tax raising idea possible.....They will not raise jack from expats.....I mean like almost zero money.....
  3. Lets cut to the chase here.......If your NOT paying monthly rent......AND you dont run the air con too much......AND you cook at home most of the time......You can live quite well off 20,000 a month......100% Trust me I am a card carrying cheap charlie I know....

    Temu

    I just put my first order in with TEMU about 4-5 days ago COD.....The order should be almost in Thailand by now.....The ordering process was no problem.... TEMU has a very very good selection of clothing......But for other things besides clothing I think Lazada and Shopee are much better......
  5. Lol......I agree... The girlfriend has some amazing talents.... But as far as making Mexican food or pizza, she is hopeless....
  6. I think at least for the past few months Panda has had the best discounts.....For quite a long time Grab had the best discounts......But Grabs discounts have gone downhill.
  7. Well good luck to you if you use your credit card in any bar in Thailand......Its not if but when you get ripped off.....And small restaurants sure dont take credit cards... Cash is very necessary for many transactions in Thailand..
  8. I have used the food delivery apps LOADS of times......So here is the run down... Yes if your paying cash ALWAYS ALWAYS make sure you have the correct change... The discounts come and go all the time......If you want the lowest possible price check the price and discounts on what you want to order on Grab, Line, Panda and Shopee..........And the order from the one with the best discount..... No delivery company is better or worse than the other....... Not every app has every restaurant...... Always give at least a 20 baht tip to the delivery driver.....
  9. When are they going to give retired expats free heath care too.....I am tired of waiting....
  10. The Chinese heard the Walking Street signs got removed....So no need to come to Pattaya for Walking Street photo Ops...
  11. I would almost bet the farm that the 2-5 sales ban stays.... Why? Because the 2-5 sales ban is complete non sense.... Which is precisely the reason it stays.... The Thai government has a thing for non sense rules...
  12. Can anyone say Pin up a GoGo....
  13. Sir your not even a good troll......Try and put together a more believable story if you feel the need to troll....
  14. So, my solution is to keep a large part of the available money in a safe at home. So whats your address again?
  15. Trust me it will be all over the news.....These folks will be making quite the news worthy stink about any taxes...
