Ao Nang has no shopping malls or supermarkets, but there are plenty of convenience stores and souvenir shops. The vast majority of shops are lined nicely along the beachfront road. There are also a few side roads (Soi's) that branch off into the cluster of crowded shops found elsewhere in Asia. The regular tourist fare (e.g. postcards, magnets, trinkets, etc.) are plentiful as are clothes, shoes, and pretty much anything else you'll find elsewhere in Thailand.
Do consider a 3-piece tailor-made suit which cost roughly THB1,000- THB2,000 depending on quality of wool. Most of the tailors can get the suit done within a day. As of October 2011, tailored mens tailored made suits are 4500-6000 ($150-$200 USD) baht and tailored made shirts are 850-1000 baht (roughly $25-$35 USD).
