I lived in Phuket Town for six months while volunteering at an English after school program. Please do try the weekend night markets, the small stalls, the out of the way places and consider sharing the prices as you do. I remember a weekly night market with so many options busy and bustling that I went every Saturday for months and could hardly try the same thing each time. This was a few years ago but 60 baht could get me a pad ka phrao or a pad thai with a heaping bowl of greens and soup each. Phuket town I thought had so much more to offer than the touristy places on the beach and you could always take a blue bus for really cheap to head to the mall or the beaches. Enjoy!
