Sweet Nostalgia for a Great Cause
Coming Soon • Thu, 9 Jul 2026, 11:00am
Remember when 50 cents could buy a whole bag of lollies from the corner store? This Thursday, we're bringing back that familiar feeling - so don't forget to bring your 50c coin.
For one day only, you can pick up a classic Allen's Lolly Bag for a 50c donation, rekindling the simple joy of choosing your favourite sweet treat with the coins in your pocket.
But this isn't just a trip down memory lane. Every donation will support the Indigenous Literacy Foundation (ILF), a national charity that works with remote Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Communities across Australia to provide culturally relevant books, literacy resources and Community-led publishing programs.
Find us at the Indigenous Literacy Foundation Book Swap, on Level 3 from 11am until sold out.
To grab your lolly bag, head to the Indigenous Literacy Foundation Book Swap within the Lubly Markets, near Lovisa and support a cause that helps more children access books that reflect their culture, language and identity.
A Small Coin, A Big Difference
To help us keep the nostalgic spirit alive, we encourage visitors to bring along a 50c coin. If you don't have cash on hand, donations can still be made online to the Indigenous Literacy Foundation, however online donations have a required minimum donation of $2.
So dig through the car console, check the bottom of your handbag or raid the coin jar at home - you might just find the perfect excuse to relive a childhood favourite while supporting a great cause.
For many of us, a 50c lolly bag is a cherished childhood memory. This Thursday, that same 50 cents can help create new stories, spark imaginations and support literacy outcomes for children across remote Australia.
