What was your best use of money ever in Thailand?


Recommended Posts

This could be for tourists, expats, or whatever.

It could be the thing you bought that you got the most practical use of over a long period of time (for example a La-Z-Boy reclining chair), or it could be just an experience you paid for that gave you an extraordinary amount of pleasure (like dinner at Gaggan). 

Sex tourism stuff off limits here.

You might want to post how much you paid for the thing or experience in Thailand and an explanation of why you consider that it was the best use of your money ever here.

Paying 75,000 Baht for a 22 year old diesel Mighty X, 4 years ago. It was in pretty good nick after working in a local fabrication factory (surprisingly). It helped build a house out in the sticks, and then helped a great deal in a 200km house move. Still going strong (touch wood).

Without a doubt, "my house" important to me to have my own space and creature comforts ???? 

 

How is that your house? This is the worst use of your money. Talk to me again when Thais take all.

One way ticket with Singapore Airlines from BKK to Europe - never have to deal with Thai Immigration is just heaven, not to mention a more pleasant climate and cheaper prices on basicly everything

I agree with the bit about thai immigration/police but a bit puzzled on prices.  Things are cheaper here if you know where to shop.  Maybe not by much but they're cheaper

I think the best use of money over here in Thailand was when I bought my wife lots of gold jewelry when I first came out, cause now it's real expensive. It's not really going to help me as I bought it for her, but it always helps knowing that she's got that nest egg if anything hits the fan.
