I do not speak vietnamese, and do not have the time to bring people around.
My holiday in vietnam always short, why waste time go outside D1. I do believe u can spend that cheap
I can pinch and save like you, go local area, eat street food, go massage or hot toc then when get chop spend time bargain and argue with them. Or I can sit at local cafe in the hope 1 pretty girl who can speak english come and serve me. I did met girls in cafe who can speak chinese but old and ugly one. So either i choose the pretty one but do chicken and duck chat or go for the old one. The selectively is poor if u only go for english/chinese speaking girl.
Go webgirl then ugly old girl turn up i just fuck becoz its cheap. End of the day depends on urself. If spending cheap is what u after, dont mind no girls company, willing to hang around urself and sleep alone, willing to settle for lower quality then by all means. Not to start an argument, that is my own opinion.

Yes, the places i went to are meant for locals. But that doesn't mean foreigners cant go there. Yes, language is a problem. But with google translate, it's not much of an issue. Unless you're expecting them to speak perfect english with you.
Many of the younger generations of vietnamese can speak english. In certain areas or joints, they can speak simple Mandarin as well.
I may be carrot chopped, i may pay higher than the locals. But compared to the exorbitant prices foreigners paid in D1, it's just 100k to 200k extra. You think operators in D1 are honest as you think? You think they wont chop you? They will slaughter like a lamb if they knew you can pay, and may not deliver a decent quality girl to you. Just ask those who uses wechat.
Penny wise pound foolish. Hmmm. I stayed for 4 days, and spent less than SGD 300. Can you beat that if you are in D1?
If you want everything swee swee and easy, suggest you go to orchard tower or geylang.
