The Amazing Thailand Grand Sale runs from the 15th June to 15th  August  and now is the time to book your trip to Bangkok, according to shopping guru, Wendy Johnson. Ms Johnson is the author of the popular Hot Spots to Shop book series, which provide shoppers and holiday makers with the complete guides to shopping in various cities, such as Bangkok.

“The shopping in Bangkok is always good, but the Grand Sale is definitely the time to get the best bargains,” Ms Johnson said. “I’m going to be the Shopping Guru in Residence at the Rembrandt Hotel in Bangkok from the 10th to 16th of August, so I can be available to help shoppers find the best bargains.”

Thailand’s annual shopping extravaganza offers excellent shopping, with discounts of between 10 and 80 per cent and promotional offers by leading department stores, shopping complexes, airlines, spas, hospitals, jewellery shops, and retail outlets.

With the current high value of the Australian Dollar, the shopping in Thailand will yield extraordinary bargains for the Australian shopper who travels to Thailand for the Amazing Thailand Grand Sale in July and August 2011. “This is not the year to miss the sale,” Ms Johnson said.  

“I will be at the Rembrandt Hotel breakfast each morning during the Rembrandt Hotels Amazing Thailand Grand Sale week, to give shoppers advice, help with your day’s shopping arrangements, and ensure you get the most out of your shopping experience package,” she said.

“I love the shopping in Bangkok at any time, because of the high quality of the products available at good prices. The range of products is immense and you can find bargains from fashion designers from around the world who have retail stores in Bangkok, some of which are not available in Australia.”

The Rembrandt Hotel has put together a package for Australian shoppers who want to attend the Grand Sale, which includes a 1000 Thai Baht shopping voucher and various other benefits, such as a one hour traditional Thai massage.
