Hi Cyn
Forget about CTC, MBK and such.
Go Plantinum Mall!!!
Brand new shopping mall at Bangkok that sell everything you can find in MBK and CTC but much much cheaper and nicer!!! If you buy 1 they will charge you retail price, if you buy 3 or more they will give you the wholesale price!!! They have everything from children clothes to belts to accessories to bags and Birkenstock slippers in many colours and design!!! If you are interested in Birkenstock, remember to buy at the basement shop.
Even talking about it I will go crazy!!! I was there in June and took 3 days in Plantinum Mall and cannot finish shopping there!!! You will shop till you go crazy!

A tip if you are going with males, get a walkie talkie so that females and males can shop separately but still able to keep in contact within the building. Even guys will go crazy in Plantinum Mall.

There is a shop @ Vivo City that sells Naraya stuff.... but not cheap compared to those in BKK.Naraya is available at the former World Trade Centre (opposite the Erawan Shrine). And i think i saw a Naraya outlet in some shopping malls in Singapore but can't remember where
Check out the Naraya Branches here:
Thailand
If you are taking SQ to Bangkok, remember to bring your boarding pass slip to Naraya, they give discount to SQ passengers! I do not know at that time and miss out the discount!
If you are doing everything Free and Easy, you can book hotels from asiarooms, they have the best rates.
Australia hotels, Singapore hotels, Malaysia hotels, Thailand hotels, Japan hotels, bangkok hotel, cebu hotels, bangkok thailand hotels, Hoi An Hotels, Halong Hotels, Nha Trang Hotels
Bangkok traffic jam is most famous, very time consuming. So I would suggest you stay near the place you want to shop and you can walk everywhere you want.

Hi,
Choose a convenient hotel like patuwan princess or novatel so not much travel by taxi, if your girl tired and just walk back from shooping like mbk or paragon ..all are surounding.
Plantium mall must go early morning so not so crowed and less traffic.from wat i saw there most of the things are in wholesale kids item not much lei.
China town (jawalug) got alot of nice things too.
Just came back last week , weather is super hot..

hi! thanks for the tips! China town (jawalug) has alot of kids stuffs?as cheap as Plantium Mall sell?ah.. the weather here super hot, in bbk sure get heat stroke. haha. i love chatuchak (weekend market) i did not see wide range of kid's clothing, do they? i only been bbk before i had my girl. so never bother kid's stuffs.
I second that - going to Platinum Mall, Pratunam & their biggest open hall pasar malam, Chatuchat. It is a lady's shopping paradise.
BKK people are also polite and nice generally. For those of you whose religion is Buddism, you can try going to their temples to pray for safety and well-being for the family.
With so much pluses, what are the minuses? Very hot, dry weather & the streets can be quite dirty and smelly at certain places.

Chatuchak - very big and very hot... very big pasar malam... opens on weekends... Sat and Sun..
Suam Lum - Very big pasar malam as well... so weekday no choice then go suam lum walk walk and makan... very big place to eat and live performance band daily i guess... but resist from buyin there cause not really cheap as compare when they just opened several years back. don't buy at all unless cannot resist. wait for chatuchak instead..
MahBoonKrong Shopping centre.. is a must.. Aircon...- so iguess they add in the price of the 'Aircon' to your products too... Good for shopping... walk till your leg ache.
Pratunam - plentiful of clothes... it's cheaper there... Lots of shops... baby clothes also a lot.
Platinium mall... - new addition - it's really a very big shopping mall... lot of stuffs too...
Chinatown weekend market too....
Spend like a 5 days 4 nights... after you come back to Singapore... you will abstain for Shopping for sometime... :tlaugh:
