It's not going to be a substantial savings going that route, especially just for a week. There are tourist SIMs available very cheap at the airport and you get the peace of mind that everything is working before you walk away from the booth.
7-11 and Family Mart no longer stock Thai SIM cards since the ruling military junta started requiring Thai ID or passport for registration when purchasing one.
