jonesyb Posted December 22, 2015 Author Share Posted December 22, 2015 I'm 6ft. I'm going to bring some clothes back with me. And stuff for the gym, water bottles, a new pair of training shoes. All of which seem very expensive here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fiddlehead Posted December 22, 2015 Share Posted December 22, 2015 Tennis balls and pretzels. Tennis ball are 1/4 the price in the states than they are here, and better quality also. I have no idea why, but I always fill my suitcase with as many tubes of balls as I can fit in once everything is packed. It's the last thing I do usually. Pretzels are better too.

In the jungle Posted December 22, 2015 Share Posted December 22, 2015 Car wash brushes. The type where the water flows out through the brush. Never seen them in Thailand. Thais tend to use dirty old rags or, alternatively, mullah the car with a pressure washer and then wonder why it won't start. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nidieunimaitre Posted December 22, 2015 Share Posted December 22, 2015 CHEESE! Yes. I never thought of that either even though I crave it all the time. How much red wine can I get away with bringing back with me? Legally you can bring 1 liter of alcoholic beverages, wine - beer - liquor combined. Me: cheese, Belgian chocolate, salami, pasta herbs, truffle oil, (coffee before but now I drink Thai coffee). Shoes XXL, socks, cheap mountain boots to work in the garden. Wife: seeds, flowers, fig trees (!), - yes, that's illegal too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
