Just back from week Sanur, (resting after 3 weeks touring through Java). Brought euro's for change to rupia's and.....ALL the money-changers were trying to cheat me (and others of course). When changing for amount of 1.000.000 rupia's, they gave all notes in 10000 and 20000. Trying to interrupt when your checking the amount. Taking money while counting and all other tricks. Happens also in Kuta and Ubud. So...be carefull.
