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
Sunday is the whole point here. Thanon Dibuk closes to traffic from 4pm to 10pm and fills with stalls selling handmade crafts, local art, vintage bits and the usual souvenir spread, with the Sino-Portuguese shophouses standing over the lot. That backdrop does a lot of work. It's the reason this feels different to the markets clustered around the beach resorts, which mostly feel like they were assembled for you.
Food is the reason I'd go even if I bought nothing. Thai street snacks and dishes cooked in front of you, stall after stall, and enough locals in the crowd to keep the cooking honest. My advice is to come at 4pm or shortly after, browse the length of the street while you can still move, eat, then let the crowd build around you. Between 6 and 8 it gets properly packed, and if you arrive then you'll spend more time shuffling than looking.
