Balloon Shop on Thepprasit

[Guderian]

This place is nothing to do with me, but I think a good idea and good service deserves some free publicity, and some people may be interested in using it.

 

It was the GF's birthday on Monday so a few days before I went to the shop to see what's what. Quite impressive if you like balloons, the owner speaks good English and has a catalogue of ready-made designs but you can customise things as much or as little as you like. She'll deliver (not sure if there's a charge for that), but I was happy to pick them up myself. It was all ready at 10:00 on Monday morning and the GF was delighted. Not cheap, but they're quite pricy back in the UK as I know from experience, my bunch was one of the most basic and it set me back 720 Baht. They lasted well, though, only started deflating a bit yesterday. If you have a special occasion coming up and want to do something different, this shop is worth a look, a good product and great service.

 

Location is on the Suk-bound (north) side of Thepprasit, just after the entrance to the boxing stadium. If you don't know where that is, just park on the north side of Thepprasit more or less opposite where the big Keha condos end and the night market starts.

"it set me back 720 Baht"

Seems like an inflated price.

Sounds cheap to me...

My wife orders balloons and other assorted party paraphernalia online from Shein. They have a huge assortment at very cheap prices (from China) and free, fast delivery. Allow a week for delivery.

That depends on the price differential. If I run out of money, they wouldn't support me, that's for certain. Price is usually the biggest factor when choosing where to shop.

But do you have helium at home? Air-filled balloons just don't float, lol.

Mine are floating on the ceiling LOL. They come with special adhesive blobs that do the trick. They'll stay up for weeks and not damage the paint. I suppose helium is not so popular in many countries these days as it is a very convenient way to commit suicide (inert gas asphyxiation).
