KhunBENQ Posted January 6, 2015 Share Posted January 6, 2015 (edited) And since when Sri Lankans carry euro's? Just think what they should carry when coming from Sri Lanka, assuming they have no CC or the llike? They will carry cash. Will they carry Sri Lankan Rupee? Sure not, close to impossible to exchange anywhere. Dollar or Euro are the remaining options (exchanged in their home country).

USD is the only currency they carry, yet to see someone from that region with anything else but USD 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ATF Posted January 8, 2015 Share Posted January 8, 2015 Doubt he was looking for rolling tobacco in the early hours but that's probably what he got. Again a lot of problems over 100 Baht. Just suck it up and accept tourists get ripped off everywhere. Better still don't go at night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just suck it up and accept tourists get ripped off everywhere. Better still don't go at night. I was with you till I got to that last sentence - not an option, I'm afraid. For all the grim news items at PattayaOne, I dont believe Pattaya has reached the point where we cant walk the streets - when that happens, its time to move to Nakhon Nowhere and start subsistence farming.
