Whether you want baby cloths from new born to 5-7 YO. or t-shirts, skirts, shorts, jeans, polo shirt, khakis, they have it all!!!

It's the shops in Seri Center on Srinakarin Road. They have all the clothing you may want for you and your kids to wear in Thailand and its price ranging from 39 Baht up to 500 or more ($1.00 - $15)....depends on brand names.

Kid's 39-129 baht ($1-$4) apices
T-shirt 50-200 baht ($1.50-$6)
Shorts 150-500 baht ($4.50-$14)

The secret for the cheap cheap price is some of the clothings has small defect or just dirty spot, simply put, they were not pass the quality standard for exporting. Some of them the factories made more than the quantity ordered so they're all got here.

To get things straight, these clothing were made of better material than most of those in store as they meant for exporting. But you'll need good eyes to sort through piles of them to get the best one. Furthermore, some of the labels might be clipped off

One shop that has children's cloths locates in front of the escalator (near Auntie Anne's) in the middle of Seri Center on 1st floor (second level) and on the other side of Auntie Anne's there another shop for women. Well, if you continue walking to the North, look on the left near escalators, there 2 more shops mostly for men and women but has some kid's stuff too.

So, enjoy your discovery... and save your money!!

Where to buy inexpensive plants in Bangkok

If you live in Bangkok near Jatujak or Bangkhen area, the good place to buy plants is the army unit called ราบ11 รอ (raab-11 ror-or if I remember it right) locate on the east side of Phaholyothin road near Chaend Wattana junction. You drive in then stop at the security building, get off the car and exchange your ID stating that you come to buy plants. After you drive a little bit further, you'll see all the plants you can buy, flower plants, even large trees.

ที่ซื้อต้นไม้ประจำ ราคาถูกคือในค่ายทหาร ราบ 11 ร.อ. ที่แยกแจ้งวัฒนะ อยู่ตรงข้ามกับวัดพระศรีมหาธาตุ เข้าไปแล้วแลกบัตรที่ป้อมยาม แจ้งความจำนงค์ว่ามาซื้อต้นไม้ มีทั้งต้นไม้ใหญ่ เล็ก ไม้ดอก ไม้ไทย เลือกได้ตามใจ สนใจจัดสวน ก็ลองถามคนขายดูได้เลย
