BROWNY Posted November 27, 2006 Share Posted November 27, 2006 so there I was a couple of nights ago, being dragged into Lucifers for the 3rd night running by my tilac, when I had to confess to her "sorry darling, too expensive, I only have small money left for my holiday" "no problem" says she "give me the money - its cheaper" and sure enough - she was charged 80 bt per beer instead of the usual 150 bt I had been stumping up.

britmaveric Posted November 27, 2006 Share Posted November 27, 2006 Always cheaper for ladies - majority of those in the discos are ladies, and they sure cant afford the outrageous prices. Normally only buy a couple and be done with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CHdiver Posted November 28, 2006 Share Posted November 28, 2006 Lucifers and Tony's have the Rule, that as soon a Girl is together with u, you pay Farang Price for the Beer (hers too). Go in separatly and she pays the Thai Price. After you can meet. I once went with my GF and some of her Friends to Tonys. She invited us, but she had to pay Farang Price for all, because I was together with them. They did not accept Farang Price for me and Thai for her and her Friends. So we left after one Drink, haven't been there since. You can go to the new Insomnia Club, there you pay 95 Baht ore so for a Beer (I heard). Don't know if a Thai there pays less. Maybe some other Places that not charge insane Prices? Anyone can give some Informations? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe some other Places that not charge insane Prices? Anyone can give some Informations? To be honest I am not a big drinker - 4 or 5 beers for an evening suits me. So I never drink too much in the discos anyway due to the prices. If I want a few beers there are plenty of bars charging a quarter the price compared to the discos. I just think it is an odd policy - charge me 150 bt for a beer and I will make it last a long time believe me. If they charged me the Thai price of 80 bt I would happily stay all night and keep ordering. Well as they say - up to you ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buckwheat Posted November 28, 2006 Share Posted November 28, 2006 dvk1951 and I went on a "slapper recon" the other night and do you know how much we were charged for beer? ...No?... Thats ok...neither one of us remember how much either! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
My Friend Same Posted November 28, 2006 Share Posted November 28, 2006 These discos are a ripoff so I don't go near them. On top of this they play thumping hip rap music which I hate anyway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glenbat Posted November 30, 2006 Share Posted November 30, 2006 Was told by a mate Lucifers was best in Patts, but after my first hol there in May/June, then a return in Sept wasnt too keen on the place, preffered Marine for dance music or Tonys for cheesy thai music (after several or more beers) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kerryd Posted November 30, 2006 Share Posted November 30, 2006 Saw a young lad, fairly well into his cups, go into Lucifers one night and order a beer. Bartender takes it out of the freezer (yeah, it was almost fully frozen), pops the cap, sets it down and tells the lad the price (120 baht ?). The kid looks at him like he's got a 3rd head (must have been paying beer bar prices before staggering into the cave), says <deleted> that and walks away. Bartender never even blinks an eye. Just puts the cap back on and sticks it back in the freezer. I'll just stick to whiskey personally (and usually avoid those places like Tony's, Lucifers and the Marine disco).

Gary A Posted December 5, 2006 Share Posted December 5, 2006 I'm obviously too old to appreciate paying way over the top for drinks in places that concentrate on giving you a headache. If I can't talk with whomever I am with because of what is supposed to be music, it is too Noisy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought the whole point about this thread was duel pricing in disco's Why should the lad pay more, in my eyes he did the right thing, if every farang did the same they would eventually get the message and we would all pay the same (if the beer bars can do it why cant the disco's) They don't seam able to grasp the idea their profits would eventually be higher, as those who take offense at duel pricing would be more inclined to return there You Sir seam to have more money than sense JMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

guru Posted December 5, 2006 Share Posted December 5, 2006 The beers are not sold at 'farang price' and 'lady price' It is 'Man price' and 'lady price" How do I know? Because my wife went down with her friends and one of her friends was with her Thai husband. The first drinks the girls ordered at the bar were sold at lady price but by the 2nd round the man had been spotted and all drinks orderd by the girls through the waitress or bartender were at the elevated male price.

donkeykong Posted December 6, 2006 Share Posted December 6, 2006 (edited) Ahh... prices, prices, prices.... At the end of the day I wouldn't put much money on your chances of complaining to anything resembling either the Consumer Affairs Dept. or an Equal Rights Commission All the bars are private establishments. They can charge you whatever they wish. If you didn't check to ask the price beforehand, or you're too inebriated to care... well som-num-na. As for the guy who didn't want to pay less than 2 quid for a beer in a late night 'entertainment complex' - well if he'd tried pulling that stunt in London (after queueing, and paying 10 quid to get in) the bouncers would have 'made sure' that he coughed up the 4-8 quid for the bottle. You pays your money, y' takes ya choice. Much as I don't like Tony's.... it's free to get in, the show is free, you just pay more for drinks. Same applies anywhere else. These places are trying to make money. You're free to enter, or not, up to you. Free market economy. If you want cheap-cheap, buy your booze from 7-11 and sit on the beach wall at the Lady Coconut Bar haggling over the price of 'hoi men' all day. . These threads have been a constant here for years. Why do so many punters expect a free ride? . Edited December 6, 2006 by donkeykong Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robski Posted December 9, 2006 Share Posted December 9, 2006 As some have said you pay your money and you take your choice, but the prices are shocking, especially the two tier system which is discrimination. We had a celebration last week in a bar and twelve of us got through 6,000 baht of singha, blindin' 400 baht each and time for a boogie, went to blues factory and paid 360 baht for one round of three drinks, kind of took the edge off a good night.
