Shopping at Big C Pattaya Thailand How Much

Shopping at Big C Pattaya Thailand
Price of my monthly shop

[@avernvrey7422]

A lot of those prices are double or more what they are in the US. Thanks for showing the prices though.

[@cheapdavetravels]

No problem Thanks for watching

[@AJ-ww6qs]

$115 AUD for that little shop, just as much as in Australia. There must be cheaper option for groceries. That’s really expensive, it’s all normal food though that we all eat. Scary though the price.

[@cheapdavetravels]

Trouble is any imported foods are heavily taxed

[@steveone]

Something thats handy on the Honda PCX is the handlebar is exposed so you can loop the straps of your shopping bags thru and tie them off so your stuff rests on the deck in front of you when riding home .

[@cheapdavetravels]

Yes I like to put things in the seat of back box I like to concentrate on riding with the madness on the roads But bag on the handlebars wouldn't hurt

[@whyimsmarterthanyou]

Looks like those Western foods are just as expensive in Pattaya as they are in Canada, if not more so. Maybe there's something to all the vloggers who say that eating Thai street food is the cheaper option. That food court on the top floor of Terminal 21 certainly seems cheaper per meal. Excellent vid, David. Nice to see what regular everyday activities look like in paradise.

[@cheapdavetravels]

Yes I think some of the Western foods are more expensive than back in our own countries I like a mixture of local and home food Someone else mentioned terminal 21 so I'm going ti give it a try sometime

[@Dave_Tae]

interesting to see the prices of western food Dave Thanks.

[@cheapdavetravels]

Yes obviously I couldn't get everything as the place is massive but gives people an idea

[@henryszlanta5350]

Thank you that you show prices 🙏👍

[@cheapdavetravels]

No problem didn't get everything but it gives you some idea

Next to the mayonnaise, I see the " Lobo brand " , they make spices for thai dishes . Most I have tried , are same taste as the restaurant. What is Amamda views regarding the Lobo brand . My favorite is the Satay mix

[@cheapdavetravels]

I just asked her and she looked very puzzled Don't think she understood what I was asking Now I'll have to play video to show her

[@spartanstorm6810]

If you don't know the brand packaging. Maybe this is quickest Lobo Co Th

[@philipbarnard2474]

You are never more than 2 minutes walk from a 7-11 store, market stalls and local shops. Big C (and Lotus's) are like down market Asda, out of town and no cheaper. And canned soup? You can get freshly cooked soup from a stall for less than a £

[@cheapdavetravels]

Only use 1 time a month Tend to use 7/11 and local market Street food Great value and also small Thai restaurant's

[@nickjones8867]

Prices dont seem too bad David i pay 1 pound for tin off tuna in Sainsburys UK.

[@cheapdavetravels]

No I don't think the prices are too bad but not been to the UK for 2 years so lost track of prices over there

[@Parker392]

Cheers Dave🍻All the Best

[@cheapdavetravels]

No problem and thanks for watching

[@truckerfromreno]

You're a brilliant shopper Dave.

[@cheapdavetravels]

Thanks Bobby

[@ewanconnor1403]

45? To the pound ah them were the days 555

[@wilburwilson2045]

Can you get shopping delivered to your condo? Order online?

[@cheapdavetravels]

I know the video wasn't that interesting but can't imagine what the video of me ordering things on line and having it delivered would go down lol

[@wrren101]

WOW.Tins of processed food, junk food and drink. Nothing fresh, not even an apple. What is the price of fresh food and fruit?

[@cheapdavetravels]

I don't know I use the local market on threpasit Road for all of that stuff plus they have fresh meats and fish I've done a couple of videos on that market if you look back I only use the big supermarket's to top up on things that I can't find in the local smaller stores

[@CanadianNomadBiker]

Dave you checked your blood sugar level lately? Easy on all the sugar & processed meats ie bacon Coca Cola sugar packs….

[@cheapdavetravels]

Hi yes I had a full health check at Bangkok Pattaya Hospital a couple of months ago for my health insurance Blood sugar was good

[@tobyprice1092]

Not soda, she said soju. Korean rice wine

[@cheapdavetravels]

Thanks I thought it was alcohol lol

[@user-bg2ig5xc3e]

Some of the food is more expensive than Australia supermarket

[@cheapdavetravels]

Yes any food that is imported is heavily taxed so will be more expensive

[@chrisrauber6602]

I can say the same from an European POV. Fruits and vegetables are cheap as hell at markets like Ratanakorn.....

[@georgewest3926]

Brilliant 😊

[@cheapdavetravels]

Thanks George

[@nickjones8867]

Some items reasonable i pay 60p for soup Sainsburys UK so Baxters soup total joke

[@cheapdavetravels]

Yes I think there is a lot of import tax they have to pay

[@Ron-zu3iv]

Having western taste does come with a steep price....

[@cheapdavetravels]

Yes they hit you in the import tax but if you have a mix of thai and western foods it's not too bad

[@paulmillward7009]

Thanks Dave. That music, and Thai over the loudspeaker would drive me crazy. I hate shopping at the best of times

[@cheapdavetravels]

Yes I only go once or twice a month lol

[@vincentmcgarry3598]

[@onlyme2030]

She’s got to go, Dave. 😂 Can stand someone holding my trolley at the front!

[@cheapdavetravels]

@onlyme2030 don't think she'd be happy if I dumped her for dragging wm around the supermarket lol Truth is I wasn't the other end of the trolley most of the time

[@spartanstorm6810]

The Var ref , needs glasses

[@jgrant138grant8]

It must be pension day

[@cheapdavetravels]

Don't get it for another year lol

[@TheTurk56523]

I have well over seven years before my retirement and I will be living there as well.

[@cheapdavetravels]

@TheTurk56523 if you get the chance to retire early do it if you have enough savings I wish I'd had the chance when I was younger
