My accomadations are taken care of so I will only need to bring money for food and whatever else I get into. I will only be going out partying once a week, most likely saturday nights. I will be eating 4-5 times daily but not in nice resturants, good and clean-thats all I will be looking for. So, to you vets out there, how much baht a week do you all think I will need for food and extras? I am thinking $100USD/wk will do me good in eating and going out once a week. Also, is it failry easy to get around without renting a car or motorbike? Thanks and great site...
Motorbike is definately necessary you can hire for between 100-200bht a day depending on your negotiating skills.

If you eat cheap only went out one night and had a few beers with no girls you may be able to get buy on 4000 bht for the week but I would probably double that if you're eating all the time. Then as SafeAs pointed out once you arrive it will be hard to sit at home every night with so much going on.
