    As always said, Shopping anywhere in Thailand will never go out of style specially if you're in Bangkok! It's best to try out their local markets as you can bargain and haggle to the lowest prices but granting you have the bargaining skills...though, it's always alot of fun. There are several night markets in around Bangkok. Local crafts and food stalls along the streets as it's always fun to witness the peopl around.
