Re:Thai beer, I believe that the post referred to the price of beer in bars, not stores. For example, in a typical bar, the price of Singha is generally in the THB80-100 range, whereas in a supermarket, the price is THB20-23 (about half a buck or less). Other local beers (with less cachet) in cases are half that price. </font>

Just want to second what UAL Traveler is saying. Singha and Carlsberg is very cheap in the local markets (even the local 7-11's).

Beers in bars are expensive relative to everything else as UAL states. And on this point, it has just gone up another 20 baht to around 110 baht now Oh well, it's still worth it though.
