get through better if you use them and i would pay no more than 5000rp a bag and that is the correct price i am sure.
I only use them if i am struggling.
As for money....the worst thing you could do would be to carry large amounts of cash around.Keep it in your bag safe until you get to the hotel and then put it in your inroom safe.along with passport etc.Take out the amount you have budgeted for each day and change every morning.
If you are travelling with husband then split the amount of cash that you have so if one got ripped the other would still have.
