Chu is wondering why I would rather stay home than scour the streets of Thailand. Reason 1: I’ve already been here and done that before. No need to do it again. Reason 2: I’m trying to avoid temptation. Whenever I go out, I end up spending. Why is everything so temptingly cheaper here? Argh!
shopping from a street bazaar
Â
is it a hat? no it’s an earring!
Â
I’ve been wanting to buy midnight blue eyeshadow for a while. That I bought it with 11 other shades (6 more shades in a bottom compartment) for the same price is sweet indeed.
Â
fell in love with this funky bracelet the moment I saw it
Â
you can’t buy a 10 dollar dress as pretty as this in SingaporeÂ
(yes, I convert to SGD instead of PHP now)
Â
comfy and pretty bedroom slippers
Â
DVDs
Â
I had been looking all over Singapore for this, to no avail. Thank you MBK!
Â
even books are cheaper here than in Singapore
And don’t even get me started on the food.
Pepper Lunch, at half the price compared to Singapore
Â
Swensens ice cream, at half the price compared to Singapore
Â
DQ blizzard, at a quarter of the price compared to Singapore and Philippines
Â
delectable coconut ice cream with fresh coconut in a shell
Doitung’s choco-macadamia drink is a dream
banoffee pie, which I’d always been curious about
what I like to call Thailand turon – bananas wrapped in fried batter and egg
steam boat + grill buffet for 100 baht
Â
tamarind, the ultimate Thai pasalubong, and my fave too
