Haggle at Markets, Not Malls
Prices at market stalls are negotiable — start at 50–60% of the asking price and meet in the middle. Fixed-price shops and malls don't haggle. Smile and keep it friendly; aggressive bargaining is considered rude.

Why go, and how to do it well
Come on a Saturday. That's my main piece of advice here, because the difference between a weekday and a weekend evening at this Bo Put market is the difference between three or four stalls along the road and a proper spread filling the parking lot behind the mini mall. It's listed as running daily from 5pm to 10pm, but the listing and the reality don't always line up.
When it's on, it's two rows of vendors, local food on one side, clothing and bits and pieces on the other. Well lit, easy-going, much quieter than the big island markets. People rate the soups, the round rice sausages and the coconut desserts. Vegetarians will find less than they would elsewhere, though chive cakes, soy bean balls and veg skewers turn up. Curries are the weak spot, judging by reviews, so I'd steer clear and stick to the things being cooked in front of you.
Treat it as dinner rather than an evening out. It's small, and you'll walk both rows in ten minutes.

Reviews from Google
Fantastic, tiny local market. We found it by accident and were amazed. We ate a soup (it is possible to order it without chicken feet, if you’re not into it😜), some round rice sausages and different types of coconut desserts. I’m not sure when does it open though; we ate there on Wednesday around 18:00, but when we were passing by this place on Thursday around 17:00 it seemed closed.
I don’t think it’s open on weekdays. I went on a week day and there were like 3-4 stalls open, but they are the ones along the road. I rode past on A Saturday evening and there were many more stalls set up in the car park of the mini mall there. So I suspect it more of a weekend thing vs a daily thing. Didn’t stop, but 100% sure it’s open and more worth a trip on a Saturday.
Worst night market we've been to on this island! We've tried ti curries which they were recommending. A yellow curry and a massaman. The massaman tasted nothing like a massaman it tasted almost ketchupy really weird and the meat was just bones and fat. The yellow curry was so bad it wasn't nearly adibale!

Tips for Visiting Markets & Shopping
Arrive Early or Late
Vendors believe the first sale of the day is lucky — you'll often get a better deal if you arrive right when the market opens. Late in the evening, sellers may also discount to avoid packing unsold goods.
