- clothes Sometimes - if local or locally made international brand. High-end business suits cheaper in SIN

- food usually but not always. High-end international sometimes cheaper in SIN.

- medicine, and medical care Prices at the Bumm starting to approach or exceed SIN

but the following are not cheaper

- electronics Very true...but computers/notebooks are competitive but selection more limited.

what about?

- skincare? Skincare/cosmetics, perfumes all much more expensive in Thailand.

- books? About same I would say but selection much more limited.

- health supplements? More expensive and limited selection. Vitamins about 2x more expensive.

Au contraire my friend...apparently someone has never been to Geyland. Can be much cheaper than Bangkok these days and quite an international selection too (not just your Issan darkies)

The hotels in Geyland are about the same price as the Nana and super-clean!

The hotels in Geyland are about the same price as the Nana and super-clean! But have they got a decent swimming pool or a fridge? Last time I was there, mine hadn't.

[Ulysses G.]

No swimming pool or fridge in the Fragrance Hotels. Maybe others?

[ClaytonSeymour]

No swimming pool or fridge in the Fragrance Hotels. That's the one - Fragrance Hotel Ruby to be precise, though I understand they're all pretty much the same. Whilst the accommodation was cheap and acceptable - the Nana Hotel wins this one easily. Maybe others?

[Ulysses G.]

Yes, the Nana is a better deal, but accomodation in Singapore is MUCH more expensive than Bangkok. A nice, clean hotel in Singapore that is almost the same price as the Nana - even without a swimming pool and fridge - is a GOOD deal.

Guess its time to go on a, um, er, shopping trip to Geyland (hope its not really spelled GAyland....boy will I be pi$$ed and will come looking for you)

[SurgeryAddict]

Its Geylang and not Geyland. haha.

I'm not into prostitution, but heard you can try orchard towers.

Singapore is highly metropolitan.
