Border bounce at Nakhon Phanom - Thakhek

[KruAlastair]

Has anyone done this recently? Is it easy? I plan to do a border bounce at the Nakhon Phanom - Thakhek border next month.  I will exit then enter Thailand again on an exemption stamp.  My main question is do I have to stay over night there? Ideally I'd like to go and come back the same day. 

 

And are they a border where you have to give them tea money like in Savannakhet? In Savannakhet they asked me for 100 baht extra upon entry and exit and when I asked why they did not respond.

Should be fine. At worst perhaps few baht for assistance.
