In Reply to: Place 2 buy beaded thongs in Tuban/Kuta? posted by dromomaniac on Saturday, 18. February 2006 at 12:49 Bali Time:
I think it was about 4 or 5 trips ago that I found a really good range of beaded thongs in a place down on Jalan Legian in Legian /Seminyak area.It's fair way down past Melasti St but before you get to the Bintang supermaret so wouldn't cost much in a taxi if you can't find closer.
They have several outlets but only been to this one so don't know what they have in the other shops.I have done a few posts on the place in the last couple of years.
I am sure on the business card I had at the time & the info I posted before that I listed the details of their Tuban outlet.I vaguely recollect that 25,000 was what I paidwithout much bargaining.Maybe do a search on either Big feet or large shoes & you should find one of my posts with all the addresses.BTW - these sandals are still all going strong except for some of the beads have dropped off the ones I wear the most.
I believe that Fiona recently found a good outlet down in Tuban - same street you take to walk to Pantai restaurant & where Fast Eddy the watch guy is.I think she said to me previously that she couldn't remember if they had Size 10 or 11 there though.
If you find anywhere new make sure you let us all know.
