So you can imagine my delight when I found a shop that sells it for 99SEK today.
And nope, that's not the end of the story (duh). Turns out the attendant put the wrong price tag on shelve and it was, indeed, supposed to be the daylight-robbery price of 149SEK. I kept my credit card and told him it's alright; walked out of the shop suavely as if I've just failed to negotiate a bargain in Chatuchak. Of course, I weren't expecting him to run after me to tell me "okok, you can have it for 99SEK" like how it always works in Thailand's famous weekend market, except... He did. After I went into the train station, he chased up to the gantry and went back after he failed to catch my attention. But luckily Yimei saw, and I went back to the shop acting as blur as I could, "yes, you were looking for me?"
And yep, "you can have it for 99SEK"
Asians boleh!
