Bargain only where it fits

ลดได้ไหม (lót dâai mái?) means “Can you reduce the price?” It may be normal at some open markets, but it is inappropriate at fixed-price shops, malls, convenience stores, or where prices are clearly marked as final.

Keep it friendly.

Ask once, smile, and accept the answer. แพงไป (“too expensive”) can sound blunt without the right tone; a polite decline is often better.

Confirm payment

รับบัตรไหมráp bàt mái?Do you accept cards?
จ่ายเงินสดได้ไหมjàai ngoen-sòt dâai mái?Can I pay cash?

Numbers are your shopping superpower

Thai prices combine number words with บาท (bàat). Practise hearing tens and hundreds before visiting a market; relying only on the calculator display works until a seller answers verbally.
