I bought a set of fishing scales - the kind that have a hook on one end, which I carry with me and simply weight my bags and post home what can't fit in. I have had too many years of worrying for days about excess luggage, almost spoils the joys of shopping. My son and his wife had been lucky for years, but got caught a few years ago and it cost them a fortune.
I have notices that since terrorism has become the prevalent they are far more diligent with weighing luggage, carry on as well and this is not only to Bali.
Enjoy.
