scorecard Posted January 17, 2014 Share Posted January 17, 2014 Tired of buying can openers which fail quickly / too difficult for the kids to turn the little handle. Perhaps better to spend a few Baht and buy small electric job. Can't see any in shops, anybody seen them for sale in CM? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RubbaJohnny Posted January 17, 2014 Share Posted January 17, 2014 (edited) I hope you will take this in the spirit intended,My wife had never opened a can until she met me. She makes delicious fresh healthy Lanna and Chinese style dishes and apart from Toamto paste for Pizza and Pasta dishes. My only cans now have animal pictures,lions,tigers and elephants in emergency. If your in C mai Robinsons or possibly Tops at Airport Plaza will no doubt have one for silly money.The regular steel butterfly type non electric type are in street markets for under a dollar,ours cost 10 baht A thai wife is the only ring pull a man needs,oddly enough those seeking a steady ringer are probably easier to find in C Mai than your gadget!

Thanks for the education. yes thanks for enlightening us with your knowledge. "...A thai wife is the only ring pull a man needs..." hmmm...that's pretty deep. i'll have to think about that one. "...The regular steel butterfly type non electric type are in street markets for under a dollar,ours cost 10 baht" well those are junk and cost 10 Bath for a reason. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stoli Posted January 19, 2014 Share Posted January 19, 2014 I too have looked for one and not found it. Thank goodness that I am going back to the states in April for a vacation, and I will be bring one back for myself. How unusual, given that they are made in China, that they cannot be found in Thailand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
