To obtain a 60-day holiday visa for Thailand, visitors from visa-exempt countries receive a 60-day entry stamp upon arrival by presenting their passport and boarding pass at immigration. This entry stamp is not an official visa, but rather a visa exemption duration. If you wish to extend your stay, you must apply for a 30-day extension at an immigration office, which can typically only be done when you have 30 days or less remaining on your entry stamp. It's advised to check for any additional requirements, as regulations may change frequently, and starting December, an electronic travel authorization may be required.
From December, you need to fill in an electronic travel authorisation

No longer needed, 60 days is automatic for most countries .

So, could I buy a flight to Thailand , then buy a flight out of Thailand in 89 days time, but go to immigration before the 60 days is up and extend it by 30?
Also on extending, when should you do it? Can you do it on day one ?
most immigration offices will not accept an application for extension until you have 30 days or less left on your entry stamp. Each immigration office has their own requirements but these are the general requirements.
i believe you need to show an exit ticket before 60 days is up regardless of you extending. Thats what it says but sometimes they check, sometimes not.

Dang, I was going to contact the Thai consulate, but with this list, 60 days is good.

If you're from a visa exempt country then you give your passport and boarding pass to the immigration officer at passport control and you'll get a 60 day visa exempt stamp. This is NOT a visa, it's just an entry stamp.
