Your beer+ld $30

This is excluding your transport, hotel etc

In sg, we also can nego thai lbs for $150-200

So price wise, it is quite the same rate
The upside is we have tons of lbs to choose from in bkk whereas sg is limited..
I guess it depends on what you want.
You can spend 2000B to get a FR off the street. WHich is S$80. So cheap!!
This would be equivalent to spending S$200 in Singapore. So Thailand much cheaper.

The bars, drinks and anything else is really extra . For me, it is for my enjoyment; just like having a beer with a few of my mates in Singapore at a bar. But in Bangkok, I like having drinks and being with LBs in the bar at the same time. So I am OK with that. And I like to have a chat with them to see if we are on the same frequency as well as having a grope to see if they have a nice one down there.

So it really depends on what you want.......In Singapore, I see meeting up with a LB as hit and miss. More misses in my experience.
