The name wasn't my choosing, but it should be fun.First game Tuesday

The bring your own bag, bag it yourself service adopted by some major stores has caused me to spend a hell of a lot less at those stores.
Used to go to BigC, only a five minute drive from my house, at least once a week and spend 3,000 baht (US$100) to 5,000 baht (US$ 166) at a time.  These days I do most of my shopping at Macro once a week. Do some shopping at 7-11 and Tesco mini market. Both places I hand them my bag and they bag it for me.
The local Ma and Pa store gets more of my shopping.  They even provided me with a cloth shopping bag.
January I saved 20,000 baht.  This month looks like the same amount, even though I had to purchase and pay installation for a new water pump.

I'll do a bit more extravagant  spending over the next few weeks, as I am sponsoring football teams for two different events
