Descriptions:
Is Bangkok still the budget-friendly paradise everyone claims it is in 2026? 🇹🇭 Today, we’re putting a $50 bill (approx. 1,600 THB) to the ultimate test.
We started our mission with a quick fuel stop at Mixue for some of the cheapest boba in the city, then dove into the wholesale aisles of Makro. We also made a quick pit stop at Watsons for some toiletries we were running low on, and finished our haul at Lotus’s.
We’re showing you the real, unfiltered prices on the shelves—from the cheap local produce to the “shockingly” expensive imported goods. Stick around for the end to see the full haul.
Are you surprised by these prices? Let me know in the comments what $50 gets you where you live! 👇

I’m a 25-year-old digital nomad exploring the world with my sister. We move slowly, living in each destination for a month at a time. We’re currently proof that long-term travel is possible on a $500/month per person budget; challenging, but so rewarding.
Enjoy watching.
