Just came back into Thailand from Savannakhet, Lao through Mukdahan immigration, very straightforward. My second entry into Thailand to get the 180 stamp.

I did have with me my bank statement showing that I had more than 500,000 baht, and also evidence of my freelance work, just in case, but I was not asked any questions whatsoever. All cleared in less than 5 mins.
