Does anyone here remember Maxi's cafe under the old John Martins, there was a little food court down there.

The shop had stacks of oranges in their cabinets. It was a popular haunt for us school kiddies on a friday arvo as it wasn't that busy so no-one could catch out the smokers

they had the BEST chips in the world too!

I think I do. Wasn't there a lot of lime green laminate down there? To get there you had to go past the confectionary area where they had that 'pick and mix' chocolate conveyor belt.

I still miss the Red Apple next door to Target at Fulham

I remember the green laminate but the choccy area is proving a bit grey with me

Another thing I remember was how coke'a'cola had their 'winning cans' where they would write 'winner' in the bottom of the can and you would take it to the local shop and get another one...lol - or something similar.

I still have three or four of those cans. They say "Coke" on the bottom.
Wonder if they are worth more than 10 cents now?

I used to down a can while I was waiting for my chips to cook and then claim the winner when I went to pay for the chips.

3) Even I used to do this, despite not being that much of a cricket fan One of the highlights of the summer as a kid, although finishing one year, one sticker short was hard to recover from

That's when you had to send a self-addressed stamped envelope to Scanlen's in NSW to get the stickers (ten max) you needed...

Too right, only two goldies though.

I couldn't bring myself to do it. For some reason, I felt that writing away for any stickers would somehow cheapen the achievement of collecting them all (yes, I know).
