very true on your comments on bali, how ever you were done like a dinner. kuta is no better but your money goes much futher and there was not as much extravagent prices as you experienced. brother's and sister's be warned when you change money as they are the best magicians in the world. you have to get up pretty early to catch me out but I too fell in the trap. After counting the money at my hotel with my wife we notice i was about 185,000 rups worse OFF. wife got mad husband ready to KILL, I went back like a cyclone everone got out of my way as i approached the money changer, he shits himself and gives my money back fast. his three mate's disapear,all this for a higher exchange rate.When changing money count and KEEP it in your hand DO NOT let them touch the rupps again and you will be winner. we done this and found that they did not like it. some place's we went to rememberd us and wouldn't change money because they couldn't rip us off.
