The last few years the rupiah has been hovering in the 7000, so the amount we take home is usually just for the convience of arriving back in Bali with $$ in our pocket (a holiday bonus ha ha).
Last trip was the highest its been (while we were there) for about 10 years, considerably higher.
As its now back to around 7000 again, I won't be bringing 'extra' home (we leave in 2 weeks), just the usual amount :-).
And certainly well within the allowances.
