Did you know the colour of the shopping bags means different things while shopping in the market places.
This was revealed to us when we stayed in Bangkok doing allot of shopping in the market places and different outlets. by a friend who lives there.
This is a way of communicating between shop owners. to let them know this person was scammed and spent allot of money to tight ass will not spend money.
A Thai friend who works around the markets told me about this
he said always ask for a white plastic bag when buying goods. or have your own this is a neutral colour and has no meaning.
Black bag mean tight ass( not willing to spend big and will try to barging low)
White bag is neutral. (prefer colour when doing allot of shopping)
Yellow means you have Money and can be charged a Higher price.
Blue means you have Money and can be charged a Higher price.
Green means you have Allot of Money..
I thought this was very interesting to find out and started always asking for a white bag, I told them I know what the colours mean and they just laughed.
some actually admitted this is true and asked if I lived there. loll.
this didn't apply in Phuket just Bangkok.
