Taxes Not Included

I do find this quite irritating actually. Not so much for room rates but for menus and drinks. How much is a beer I ask. 120 Baht. Great, two beers then. That will be 280 Baht. Hmm.. You said 120 Baht for a beer. Ah yes but there is a 17% tax on top etc etc...

Now I say "How much will you charge me for a beer in your restaurant."

Still its not as bad as Americia where the supermarkets in Florida seemed to show all the prices without the sales tax and the check out bill was a bit of a shock the first time.
