Title: The price of ice just got cheaper
Post by: nookiebear on February 20, 2010, 08:37:56 AM
Something has actually fallen in price ..........I'm still in shock.....Bags of ice which were 25 baht a couple of years ago went up to 35 baht,then 40 baht during the fuel/oil crisis,eventually dropped back to 35 baht but recently down again to 30 baht... Is this the start of something???????

Your ice supplier obviously isn't a member of the Buriram ice suppliers cartel,,,,There are around half a dozen different companies deliver here in Sakut & they all alter their prices together....I can remember when it shot up to 40 baht last year a letter was dished out,with about 30 different supply companies at the top.
