I have seen stall owners and shops that may try to rip tourists off. Yesterday a money exchange tried to short me 50k.
However, I was ashamed by these Australian girls yesterday simply because of their rudeness and the scene they were making. I was brought up to respect others, and in my many trips to Bali I have always been respectful to the locals. Even if they try to take back a few bracelets or pencils. The behaviour of these girls was unacceptable and although it was not my behaviour, nor a reflection on my character, I have every right to feel ashamed of what I saw.
As for the nazi's who felt the need to correct the term 'bartering'.
Your own spelling and grammar is absolutely terrible. However I would never interrupt a forum post just to correct this. The pettiness on this forum is absolutely ridiculous. I am only 20 years old, and see less of this on my Facebook news feed!
