Its the law, but only enforced by the supermarkets. Alcohol cannot be sold between 2 and 5 in the afternoon- he was only doing his job. Just go to 7/11 family mart or any little Thaishop- they will sell, also any bar. Tis ting tong but just another crazy rule we have to live by. Its designed (in theory) to cut down on alcohol cunsumption- fat chance.

Agree that it's ting tong when it´s for 3 hours in the middle of the day. Back home the law says you cant sell alcohol before 9 in the morning and after 9 in the evening. I think that have a greater effect rather than to have a 3 hour ban in the middle of the day

I hope this was meant as a friendly banter, otherwise it could be seen as very rude, and as a "personal attack". The latter is not tolerated here.

we stopped at Tesco on way to village, walk into the liquor store part
thai clerk walks up to my gf and tells her we have 3 minutes to buy our booze before 2pm
as he turns the corner and sees i have a shopping cart full of booze and ready to buy more, he tells her to take our time

so i guess if you are buying in bulk the rules dont apply 555555
