Shopping in Pattaya?
There are two major shopping centers on Beach Road, Mikes Shopping Center is one of them, the other is about 2 blocks towards Walking Street (the ships anchored out) from Mikes. Behind Mikes Shopping Center on 2nd Road about 3 blocks to the left (back towards Mikes) is the local market. Big C is on 2nd Road toward the northern end of town. Do a map search of Pattaya and a good tourist map will have the shopping areas marked. I would assume the prices in Pattaya are a little cheaper then Bangkok but that is just a guess. Regardless of where you get stuff, bargain, then bargain some more. Don't be afraid to tell them you'll give them xxx price, the most they can say it they don't bargain. Enjoy.
Reply:Pattaya is packed with shops, finding genuine Givenchy sunglasses will not be difficult at all.


I find Pattaya more expensive than Bangkok for shopping.


They sell very similar items so it should be okay.
Reply:You can buy anything in Pattaya really cheap. There are also some really nice shopping centers like malls.





The best deals are clothing, shoes, and jewelry.
Reply:There are many many street vendors where you can buy just about anything you want. There is also a 4 story shopping mall on the main street in Pattaya. Please don't be shy to negotiate on all prices and items if you shop at a street stall. The "stuff" is "same, same" (favorite Thai expression) as you would find in Bangkok.





There are many independent stores as well on Walking Street but be prepared for the many ladies of the night possibly interacting with you. Have a blast!
