For your 100 pounds, at to-day's rate you will get 1,695,798.00rp.
Lots of notes to keep in your pocket, maybe bring some 50 pounds notes as well.
Use rupiah in the shops, don't be tempted to change your money at small money changers that advertise a higher rate, they will scam you for your money and come out with less.
Look for the Kodak shops, easy to recognise, yellow & red, they are pretty good.
