I think it's free for everyone. A few ago I went around Ayutthaya when this same offer was running and got in everywhere for free. I definitely recommend it as the sites are nice but to be honest not really worth the 'farang price' entrance fee.

Ability to obtain a wife when rejected by females of own kind is definitely free.

Extremely long term expensive!

Does this include the navy beach at Sattahip?  200 per farang; 100 for Thai last time I went.
