for tshirts, shorts etc see JENNY shop in poppies lane 2 and shop 21 at kuta markets. they are very friendly and helpful. they dont barter but you wont get things too much cheaper than what you will if you do barter elsewhere. if they dont have what you are looking for in clothing just ask they will probably be able to find it for you. they threw some caps in for our kids as we bought so much and usually gave them a bit more than what they asked as they were so helpful and their prices are so cheap with no hassles which leaves more time to talk to them and learn about their way of life. wayan and ketut are at poppies lane 2 and made wayans sister is at kuta markets. tell them glenn and kim from aust said hello. after shopping there 4 times even their relatives in other shops knew who we were so then we also chatted to them and also then got the same prices of them (even though they did barter) if they had something different to jennys shop. once you have purchased from them they will tell what you should pay for items they dont stock which can be very helpful to 1st timers. even if you do like to barter shopping here 1st will give you the right prices for clothing so you will know what is too expensive. DVDS are available everywhere but there is a shop about 200 metres past discovery mall which seemed to have better selections than we normally buy off and they have but 10 get 5 free and so far every 1 has worked (about 20 so far). watches vary in price but i havent bought any myself as i have quite a few already but be careful there has been a lot of people
