Thumbs up Has anyone tried these budget techniques?

Trying to get from LAX to BKK. I'm totally willing to do the footwork, but I would rather not follow dead ends. Not looking for pricing information (although appreciated) but more advice on conducting my search. So far, I've found the following 'techniques' appealing

1) Take the best from what I find using online services and a collection of airline specific searches

2) Buy the ticket from inside Thailand and have them Fedex (how secure is this?)

3) Find a travel agency nearby that specializes in Thailand.

4) Fly into a cheaper destination on the mainland and bus/boat/tuk tuk the rest of the way.

I really don't care about comfort or mileage or any of that jazz. I would simply like to get there using the smallest amount of duckets. Thanks in advance. Sorry If I've mis-posted, new to the site
