Bargains to be had in Phuket

[Coolhand]

As everyone knows the cost of living in Thailand is a lot cheaper than the UK, and there are some real bargains that enhance the Thailand experience, for example:-
a packet of ciggies - 70 baht, over 300 in the UK
1 hour massage - 300 baht, approx 2000 in the UK
a seafood meal - 500 baht (upmarket), probably 3500 in the UK
a taxi from airport - 500 baht, 5000 baht for same distance from Heathrow.
a night in a hotel - 1500 baht, 6000 baht in London (probably more)

So what do you reckon is the best value for money?

the price of a quick knee-trembler, behind a skip, with a smeliy
old drug-addictted who*e, in the uk, about 2000bht--3000bht--?£30--00?
-the price in phuket, for a nice romantic evening out, with a beutiful petite soft skinned,silkened haired brown girl, with a wondeful smile and a sense of humour, who will treat you like a king, and stay /sleep with you all night, and the next day if you want ,- will wash you in the shower and shag you till your completely spent --bht 1000-1500 ?---priceless!

MMM the pc I am not so sure, not if they are new!

A lot of pc's around that have been made from several broken ones!

It is more expensive now, but so it is everywhere: petrol! Less then half the price then over here in Europe!
