Party time indeed - we all need to buy food from time to time. This sounds like something between a convenience store and a supermarket. If they do well there, hopefully it will help to revitalize Pantip Plaza. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dante99 Posted August 25, 2016 Share Posted August 25, 2016 I am so excited about this and can hardly wait until it opens. Another supermarket/minimarket, wow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lordblackader Posted August 25, 2016 Share Posted August 25, 2016 The sarcasm aside there's no decent semi-supermarket in that part of town if you live close buy. There's Rimping across the river but that's it. Haven't been into it yet but if it's half-way to a supermarket (say bigger than a Tesco Lotus express) it's definitely welcomed.

NancyL Posted August 25, 2016 Share Posted August 25, 2016 Oh darn, when I saw that the latest post to this thread was from you, Dave, I was S-O-O looking forward to photos. I caught sight of the front of the store during a recent songthaew ride in that part of time and I was so happy for all my friends in Peaks Gardens, Twin Peaks, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chicog Posted August 25, 2016 Share Posted August 25, 2016 I'd be quite happy having a Big C round the corner from my hotel (DuangTawan). There's so much empty space in that mall they could almost put a full one there. Sorry about your bike Dave, but thanks for trying anyway! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fcgprg Posted August 25, 2016 Share Posted August 25, 2016 I called in this morning it is well stocked and far bigger than a Tesco express. Good for the area I would think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lordblackader Posted August 25, 2016 Share Posted August 25, 2016 Went there this evening, turns out it's a Big C Market, so between the small store and really big store and all you need to know is that it's a full blown supermarket with everything you need, be it they had a limited range of cheese Given the price difference between Big C and Rimping we'll be doing most of our shopping there from now on, even a 4 pack of Chang was 117 baht vs 140 baht at 7-Eleven Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rubbish and I've been shopping at both for years. Rimping has always been more expensive, be it that it has higher quality goods (say with vegetables) accounting for a lot of the difference. If you averaged it out it would go expensive to cheap: Rimping > Tops > Tesco Lotus > Big C Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
