I'm getting in too deep here; too cryptic. Time for an early single malt tipple.

1,000 baht, let's see. A foreigner for a day, but only for the days he works.

If I had a 1000 baht my wife would relieve me of it immediately and probably buy another handbag to add to her impressive collection.

LOL. My wife loves bags. While I was subsidising her lifestyle she was always buying the things. Only used them a few times and bought another. Ended up with boxes full of the things.

One of the reasons I stopped buying her anything, as it ended up never being used.

Hotel accommodation in Thailand can be great value so many commented that this can a cheap room for the night.

Up in Chiang Mai, it's a decent room and food for the day with something left over.

One run with Bangkok Hash House Harriers.

 

Taxi 200 each way. (depends on run location so can be less). Run fee 300, dinner after run 300 ( but sometimes can be less or even free)

The Saturday before last, the wife, myself and Mildred went to Laos for my 30 day stamp. We spent about 1000 Baht in the duty free. Mildred bought a teddy, I bought 2 litres of single malt whisky and the wife bought a leather bag.

 

Yesterday in Big C, I spotted a bag which was, to my eyes, identical to the one she bought in Laos. The price tag was 1250 Baht. Instead of thinking "bargain", she said the Laos bag must be a cheap imitation. 

 

Last night the Laos bag was stashed away; never to be seen again (along with another 20).

You could sell all her bags and buy the gentleman's car before he's crushing it to death.

Thou jest. Try staying in any hotel in London for the equivalent of 1500 baht a day.

If you cant't find that out by yourself you should not be here. Close to being the most stupid post this week.

A bung for the police if you are caught riding your motorbike on certain Bangkok carriageways. That is

if you are stupid enough to pay it.

[alien365]

I'd say 1,000 baht gets you two decent meals for two people eating out. If you eat locally that will cover the beers.

I am sure he did not find out yet another nice way of spending: 2 hrs really professional oil massage followed by a "special"...errr... that is another thousand, though (fine if you do it every other day)

hmmmh, an old wench for a night?

[ancharee]

Think you struggle getting the truth from a lot of expats, I live in a small village in Issan and a couple of expats say they spend 100,000b a month even though they only go Thai shop drinking twice a week and have 2 or 3 big leos, don't smoke never go anywhere else in Thailand and say they have no debt, utter bulls****. For me 1,000b probably lasts a couple of days unless I take a trip down to Patts.

You can pay all expenses to be able to live for roughly 3 days in BKK with 1000B if you live "simple" but still are lazy to cook.....

 

Breakfast: 3 Grilled pork sticks (5B each) + 1 sticky rice (5B) = 20B
Lunch: Rice topped with omelet = 20B
Dinner: Rice topped with 2 dishes = 35B, Alternative: Anything at a cheap taamsang (cooked to order) place = 35B
Thai style dessert: 15B average a day
Thai style snacks: 25B average a day
Local white rice spirits (35%-40%): 70B, will usually last 2 to 4 days if you drink everyday = 25B average per day
Soda water to drink with your spirits: 8B per bottle, Average 4 bottles for 1 day if also mixed with water = 32B per day
Something to eat while drunk: 30B per day
Commuting to your work and back home by bus: 20B per day
Rent: You can rent a place that's fairly livable for about 1500B per month (yes you do lol, even in central Bangkok), so about 50B per day
Utilities: If you don't use the aircon your utility will be around 500 per month, which is 15B average per day

Mobile Internet: 99B per week, so 15B per day average

 

Adding everything up together is 302B per day, which is enough for 3 days = 906B, and even gives you 94B buffer for those 3 days. You could use that to do something fun like seeing a movie or taking a date for dinner at a cheap Som Tam stand haha :)

 

But.... you could also go to Red Sky @ Central World and spend 1000 it on an appetizer 55555
