Thai food and drinks like coffee can be a bit cheaper for sure. Most dishes can be bought on the local markets or in local "restaurants" for 40 Baht or so. Smaller coffeeshops also offer drinks for around 40 Baht. I believe in bigger cities prices might be 50% higher or so.
Clothes and such can be had very cheap as well (maybe 200 Baht for jeans), but no brands of course.
For reference: 1 USD is around 30 Baht right now.
- toastal 7y agoCan confirm. Many dishes around Bangkok have been raised to around 50฿ now and I'd say your average 'indie' coffee shop with AC, wifi, and power outlets, drinks will be about 60-80฿. Rent for a studio outside the city centers of Bangkok with AC and a hot shower (rare since locals don't like hot showers) is like 4000-8000฿ / mo.
