Ask yourself how many were owned by someone who ever ran a bar ? I only see 50 baht bars changing hands or closing down . Or those who sold at premium prices but nothing to offer, not even a comfy bar stool Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But, i don't think that raising the prices can be a good answer to that, let alone getting rid of frugal customers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rents go up , cost of goods go up, wages go up, bills and cost of doing business also goes up. there is a difference between frugal and tight ass. frugal seeks out cheap price, tight ass just complains about price being well aware of what it is . In OP case, he did not have one but 2. He was well aware of the price and was not forced to stay or buy a second one. But he did stay and now complaining . how is that frugal ?

I think the OP has the right to post his opinions,even if personally i would never complain about a few Baht difference in prices. My point is, we know there is competition in the business, prices are rising etc... so it might make sense to make customers feel welcomed, even when they don't spend loads of money. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wasnt aware of the price before I went in there and only found out when I left . I also didnt seek out the cheapest bar , I just went into that bar because there was no one else on there . I do realise about inflation and costs always go up , as I would normally have five or six beers , that's 900 Baht just in beer and I just cannot justify spending that amount everyday on drink . 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pchan25 Posted October 1, 2018 Share Posted October 1, 2018 I almost check the price everywhere before I order my drinks. So 589 Baht in Big C for 12 large Chang https://www.bigc.co.th/chang-beer-620-ml-pack-12.html In some bars I wonder how they can sell a bottle for around 70 Baht at all 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

naboo Posted October 1, 2018 Share Posted October 1, 2018 Many bars around Chiang Mai with very attractive ladies selling beer at prices half of the OP. Loi Krap is dead. If your social skills are not up to chatting up a girl away from Loi Krap, have your beer elsewhere and pop down the tourist ghetto for a massage. They all have Line.....

No huge rents, minimal electric as of no AC, most no tv + no salary for staff in most places. In major cities you are not paying 150 for a small bottle either. That is what I pay for a whisky or wodka + mixer and often even less. Clubs are expensive anywhere, can't compare that with bars nor with CM. It is simply greed and trying to make up revenue after having fck** up themselves, I also see this pricing behaviour at certain bars in ''drink plaza's'' around BKK (soi 22) and Pattaya (anywhere). The ones that know to manage cashflow and run a bar, are only growing & without prices having been increased (much). In BKK i pay 160 for a Black Soda Coke beer usually runs around 150 except for happy hour then half price. Most of the bars on Loy Khrok have TV because if they do not no Sat. crowd to watch PL. There are a few bars who do not pay a salary to the girls but most pay around 6,000. Yes and the coppers always have their handa out how do they stay open after hours with the door pulled down.

BTB1977 Posted October 2, 2018 Share Posted October 2, 2018 There is a loco rock music bar here in hua hin soi 94 not even on the beach charging 200 for a large beer. The music is good, but the same music night after night. I could not go on a regular basis. Once or twice a year maybe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
