Thanks Nicolette for filling us in with the good bargains. I have been to Phuket but only managed to shop at night markets around the hotel that we were staying at. I hope to go there again someday and hop on a ride to Phuket town. I think the expo sells more apparel and in a better condition too as compared to the markets. Great travel diary by the way. I like how you put the pictures in the order of your visit so your readers can plan their itinerary accordingly.
