Who remembers these popular plates from the ‘80s? They were a special treat, a bonus from shopping at Coles. Mums eagerly save up stickers or points to earn the whole set. Do you still have this collection? Share your memories here.

Oh yes I remember my mum had these and I also remember them being heavy and somehow noisy when using them.

I still have a couple of my mums pieces.

Yes, we had the exact same ones and used to eat dinner off them every night. Along with the side plates as well. Would you believe one of my family members still uses them to this day!

Many years ago, my mother-in-law did a kitchen clean out and one of those plates were amongst the items she gave me. I used it as a serving plate.

I have one left and my fur baby eats her dinner off it.

I also remember when you were given crystal?? Glasses for spending a certain amount in Coles.

I still have a few of these in my cupboard. They come out when I have a few extra guests, who don't worry about the mismatched china.
