Bangkok is a mecca shopping paradise, the range is impressive and the prices low, you'll need to include a day or two browsing the shops and shopping centres of the city. You can escape the heat into the plush sophistication of air-conditioned shopping centres, or join the curious in the chaotic lanes of Chinatown.
