Thai Rath reported from the Sriracha market in Chonburi early this morning - it's Valentine's Day.

 

There were far fewer people buying roses for loved ones this year.

 

Trader Wimon Sae-tae who owns the Wimonwan store said that was because more and more people are switching to online sales that include delivery.

 

It was probably not indicative of people spending less on the Day of Love.

 

She was selling Thai roses at 15 baht each or 30 for a small bunch.

 

Foreign grown "dork kulaap" were going for upwards of 80 baht and fancy bouquets could be as much as 5,000 baht.
