I want to buy a rain ponch after being caught in downpours once too often.

I've tried Big C and Tesco Lotus without any joy.

Does anyone know where I can buy one in Pattaya

Go into one of the general purpose dry goods stores that practically litter the highway.

Get the big orange poncho that's made of a heavier plastic. If your feeling cheap just get one of the thin anoraks most of the thai people use.

A large garbage sack with three holes punched in it seems to work quite well for many of the locals...expats as well.

They had them in Tesco Lotus (Suk) last week. They probably run out everytime there is a thunderstorm.

I've seen them in various Family Marts and 7/11s. Usually tucked in the display at the end of an aisle (near where they keep garbage bags and such).
