Get a Multiple Entry Tourist Visa (METV) for unlimited entries during 6 months. You can even get another 60 days at the end of the validity period.

OR if METV requirements are too harsh, get a Single (SETV) for 60 days then extend 30, then get another SETV at neighboring Thai consulate and repeat. Add a quick border bounce at the end for the last 30 days visa exempt.

Depends where in Thailand you are now. Go to the nearest Thai embassy/consulate (in neighboring country). Vientiane, Phnom Penh, Penang, etc.

Visa first, condo second

Get tourist visa in advance, this gives a 60-day entry, then extend at immigration 30 days for 1900 baht. Note, if you arrive without a visa (visa exemption) you get 30 days but can only extend 30 days not 60.

As usual, make sure to check the dates when they stamp you in.

If it's a Multiple Entry Tourist Visa (METV) you get 60-day entry, then can either extend it another 30 days at immigration OR leave Thailand and re-enter (free, except in some cases visa for neighboring country). The visa is valid for six months, meaning you can go and re-enter during that period. Even the end of validity you could still get another 60-day re-entry, with another possible 30-day extension.

Borders generally stay open every day. Immigration and consulates (and other government offices) close for national holidays.

The extension will be 30 days from the expiry date
