just back from bali-- are you people talking about changing money with people who walk up on the street? or do you mean the many money changing signs in kuta?
i changed money at the fuji film developing to the right of matahari across the street. not the one directly in front, the one to the right.
i gave him brand new $100 us bills and he gave me 6900 r to the $
he laid them out and i counted them once
after showing him my calculator which always matched his.
getting large bills is the key
if i went in somewhere that only had small bills, i went elsewhere
and this place always had nice, new large bills
