BUY 1 get 1 FREE

I am excited. Our Chef Ongart is wonderful in the kitchen. To celebrate you are all invited to dine with us. Order something from our Bistro Menu and your Thai lady can enjoy her Thai food for FREE. This offer is available Monday to Saturday until 30 November, 2009. Check out the menu here: aussie-bar-udon-thani-under-new-managment-t15685.html I have emailed the info and some pics to Lee today, so he will post them some time soon. I look forward to seeing you all. Happy Days. Aussie Ella

Remember to tell the girls your saw this on Udonmap to get your free meals.

Now then Sheila

If i go alone to the Ozzie Bar and want to still take part in ur offer, can i order the Thai food, and give it to your lovely staff instead of buying them a drink ! So its like Ladies Meal and not a Ladies Drink

A way to a Thai womens heart after shopping must be her stomach.

Good point Wazza, Lady Meals is a great concept! We all know Thai love to eat. Around town there are other promotions offering discounts, so look out for them too!!

OK, so now Lee has posted the menus, although he made a mistake, he will fix it up soon. Take a look, and I'd appreciate feedback, although it can be said 'the proof is in the pudding' The customers say the best are the Lasagna & the fishernmans basket. Mind you the burgers are like no others in town and we make loads of them. The local and visiting Aussies say it's a real taste of home.

Oh drat!!
I thought the buy one get one free was for the Bar fines

ive just been to morrisons in uk to day. big bottles coke. buy one get 2 free. morrisons put 1ltr bott of bailys 10 POUNDS next day lo and behold asda same bottle 9 pounds day after coop same again 8pounds. compition is great. i wish it worked like that in thailand. i would still rather be in thailand.

Anytime there's a buy-something, get-something free sale -- rest assured the giveaway is a lure. It also almost guarantees whatever you're paying for the prime, is well overpriced. And the giveaway is excess to the retailer.

Strap a .25 satang tissue pack to a two-million baht Camry and you'll attract business.

Good value for money should be determined outside of gimmicky promotions. Having said that, I haven't eaten in the Oz Bar.

Just saying.

My experience with this Buy 1 get 1 free, when it applies to meals etc, is they reduce the profit to be made to attract the customers.

In this case Thai food is the free meal and as we know, it can be obtained with street vendors from say 25 Baht up, depending on the choice, chicken, seafood.

Add the fact that the bars , have overheads, its not reasonable to expect that a pad kapow gai is say 60-70 B,

Where the profit for the bar is the time the customer spends there with his partner and buying some drinks at reasonable prices etc.

What else would it be; of course it's a lure to draw customers. Doh!

So customers should recognize it as a gimmick and react accordingly.

Understanding it's NOTHING FREE, but rather a tradeoff. Pay more for one meal to get another FREE!

Line up simpletons!

another disclaimer: I've yet to try it -- maybe it's good value.

Given that the farang menu, and prices, are now publicly available on UM, I am not sure Ms Ella will be able to jack up one price to compensate for the freebie.

But I may be a simpleton

The farang food prices look the same as they have been always there, so the prices havent been jacked up at all.

Just an observation, but im also a simpleton then.

likely

What did one simpleton say to the other.................nah!, forget it
