Big C Extra, a large-scale supermarket in Thailand to supply all kinds of people's needs

Big C is a large-scale supermarket chain group in Thailand with more than 700 stores spread across the country. It acquired another competing brand "Carrefour" and remodeled its shopping malls to develop a branch brand "Big C Extra".The difference between the two is that Big C Extra has a larger shopping environment and a larger quantity of goods. In addition, even the selling price will be lower. So you will see a scene where foreign tourists go to the Chit Lom business district Big C to buy heavily, and the local Residents go to Big C Extra to purchase daily necessities.

The rise of Big C in the Thai travel circle depends on official and travel writers and book promotion

If you want to eat, play or shop abroad, you most want local people’s enthusiastic recommendations, such as private attractions, hidden foods, or No.1 local sales, to satisfy your desire to travel and be different from others.The Tourism Bureau of Thailand in Taiwan invites media, travel agency practitioners or bloggers every year to introduce all kinds of food, drink and fun information to them through itinerary arrangements, in order to introduce them to readers in Taiwan later, plus some travel books on hand have introduced Big C With these good things.

A total collection of 50 legendary must-buy in Thailand and Bangkok must-buy lists

it is good!Going back to the list of these XX must-buy items, before 2009, there was almost no must-buy, must-eat or must-play. At that time, the information relied on books, newspapers and magazines or program reports, and most of them were nothing more than introducing some affordable and rich Thai culture. For amorous products, it is not until the rise of bloggers and social platforms in recent years that there have been article after article of lazy bags to compile a list for novices.However, these products have been popular for 10-15 years. If you look at the titles of the articles in the 2017 and 2018 editions, is it necessary to add some new and exotic products? (Black question mark)

Ok!I don’t understand the idea of ​​those guide articles. I will compile the "old-fashioned (= long-lasting)" purchase list for readers at once. If you are about to plan a trip to Thailand, just follow the picture to find out.In the unlikely event that relatives, friends or colleagues see the online guide and have to buy it with them, or if they have to buy it as an office souvenir, it will be enough to go to Big C at one time, no need to run around and waste time. Own travel itinerary.

 

Must-buy list (XNUMX): instant snacks and food

The pictures of the bed full of common trophies are almost all these snacks and foods. The unit price is low and the size is small. You can sweep the stuffed suitcase and bring it back to Taiwan as a souvenir. You can also take it out for your colleagues to eat in your spare time at work. Good-neighborly!As mentioned above, these products can be bought at the "Mei Zhenxiang" in the night market at Bangkok's Riverbank and at the MBK Center near the BTS Siam station of the central Skytrain. Therefore, it is recommended that readers just pass by and buy them.

① Instant noodles: especially the hot and sour seafood flavors are the most popular. In recent years, Taiwanese supermarkets have also introduced sales.
② Nestlé Thai Milk: When I went to Bangkok in 2011, the shelves would be sold out. When I visited in 2017, there were still a lot on the shelves.

The biggest difference between Thailand and the previous two is the price and CP value. These beauty and skin care products are hot in the purchasing circle, so you might as well travel to Thailand yourself to carry them back and stock up on them!

Must-buy list (XNUMX): Medicines and people's livelihood products

Large-scale Big C shopping malls usually have a small pharmacy attached. If you want to buy medicines, it is recommended to consult first.If it is applied externally, the risk is not too high. Most of it is used to relieve symptoms. However, if it is taken internally, it is better to use it as little as possible. There are multilingual hospitals in Thailand. In case of illness, it is best to go to the hospital for medical treatment. It is recommended to buy insurance when traveling abroad to reduce the large expenditure of medical treatment.

① Wu Ta San: This is also an essential medicine that has been spread on the Internet for a long time, mainly for motion sickness, boating or diarrhea.
② Flying Rabbit Stomach Milk: It is inevitable that you will become unaccustomed or have a bad stomach when you go abroad. You can also buy it at this pharmacy.
③ Mybacin / Nude lozenges: When you travel to Thailand, you should familiarize yourself with some basic medicines. If you encounter a situation, you can relieve symptoms first and return to Taiwan for medical treatment.
④ Nasal inhalant (mint stick): very easy to use, the top is refreshing with a refreshing mint scent, and the bottom is suitable for mosquito bites and wipes
⑤ Mosquito repellent: Mosquitoes are unavoidable outdoors in Thailand. This bottle is a common brand in Thailand, easy to use and recommended
⑥ Green grass cream: This was recommended by the tour guide during the tour in 2005, which is very useful for relieving fatigue
⑦ Counterpain Sore Ointment: There are three colors of gold, red and blue, which are suitable for different inflammation symptoms. I also bring it when I go abroad. Sometimes my legs are too sore and massage to relieve
⑧ Sabai Home SPA: Their grass cream has several different flavors of floral fragrance, and the hot shoulder compress is quite recommended, which can help relieve stiff shoulders and necks. It is a common product in Big C Extra stores in recent years.
⑨ Cooler sanitary napkins: This is also a popular product discussed in the community in recent years. When the summer menstrual period comes, I am most afraid of sultry heat. Anya has used Cooler sanitary napkins and can only say... super cool! (trembling)
⑩ Laundry detergent travel bag: When you come to Thailand for vacation, sometimes you will choose apartment-type hotels, which have washing machines to wash your clothes together. At this time, the travel package in the store is very useful. It is recommended to readers who are novice parents.

Concluding remarks: The online "Must-Buy in Thailand" is all in a single-brand supermarket

Except for travel writers, books or media reports, the so-called "must-buy in Thailand" good things in the past are mostly brought from group travel guides (or shopping stations), such as grass paste, five towers, and pearl fish wallets.Nowadays, thanks to the increasing amount of information on the Internet, I can find many consolidated lists. I have read it for a long time... The contents of the lists that are almost the same in Taiwan and Hong Kong’s Aitai community have all gone down. It is a bit too much to call it "must buy".If you write a "must-buy in Taiwan" travel article to foreign readers, the source of the goods is all a certain chain supermarket (for example: Love X, Hao X Duo or Jia X Fu), you agree that it means that you must buy it for your trip to Taiwan Product?

Anyway, my "cynicism" is expressed in the title, but "people are in the rivers and lakes, you can't help yourself." With the help of Thailand's must-buy articles, sometimes even if you don't want to buy it yourself, many colleagues and relatives and friends will entrust you to buy it on your behalf. If you want to find "must-buy in Thailand" and "must-buy in Bangkok" and cheap and affordable products, just take a trip to Big C Extra. Remember that you can also apply for tax refunds for more than 2,000 baht.

This article is a total collection. You can also find photos of other products in the following two articles. Take it slowly.
