HI Boo Hoo
Scales in jimberan bay can be tested with a full drink bottle if you see the need. 600ML = 600 Grams.
What we did , was take the scales as they were and bartered the rate per Kilo we paid. ( Works out the same )
Take cash and Visa/amex card
We always split our monies into both and use cards where we can , like matahari's , department stores , restaurants , hotel bills etc and cash for the rest. ( Cash in either $100 and $50 notes are okay. )
If you take travellers cheques be very very careful with your passport as you will need this everytime you cash a TC. ( Dont lose the little piece of paper that immigration gives you back in your passport , you need it when you depart )
Cheers
