daveAustin Posted November 29, 2014 Share Posted November 29, 2014 I never believe 'Sale' signs here. Standard practice is to hoik prices first and have them up permanently. If I want something I'll have it and haggle (even in the malls), but no sale sign is going to make me go 'ooh' while walking down the street because I know it's BS!

Like many post said already never a real sale in Thailand. Just more smoke and mirrors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AGareth2 Posted November 29, 2014 Share Posted November 29, 2014 It's vote buying and if others were doing it, people would be screaming corruption because political parties are organising gifts and freebies to get people to love them. mmm when is the election? anyway I want a smart tv for Christmas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
londonthai Posted November 29, 2014 Share Posted November 29, 2014 election is sometimes after 2015, but the sale is a sweet gift to keep voters docile. Otherwise they might be demanding democracy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benmart Posted November 29, 2014 Share Posted November 29, 2014 For anything positive, there are some who play a negative spin maneuver. For every negative, the spin is in reverse. Makes no difference. The sun most likely will rise in the morning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cake Monster Posted November 29, 2014 Share Posted November 29, 2014 What a fantastic idea !. Make the people feel happy by spending all their cash on goods to hoard, which should reduce the horrific road fatalities and accident figures over the " season of death ", as there will be no money left for them to spend on booze and yaba.
