There is only one thing cheap in Phuket. Food. If you dare to walk into a Thai street joint. You will probably don't dare that and you will go to Mario's Pizzeria (or whatever) and you will pay 350 Baht for a Spaghetti Napolitana which is so horrible and doesn't taste like Napolitana at all, but .. it's red and that 's mostly enough for the visitors.
But for the purpose you are coming, get drunk every night, f[aeiou]ck a girl every night, hear every day 20 times that you are very handsum and leave about about 5000 usd in 3 weeks, Phuket could be your place.
And you will love it too.
And then you will return home, you will read this forum everyday and you will change your name into "IreallyloveThailand" and waterdrops are falling out of your mouth.. .. only 9 months to go and than you can go back and .... all the ugly bargirls again.
But as long as you keep your money in your pocket: "no ploplem!"
