Contributor's comments: I've heard this experssion before in Melbourne, though it's very rare. The Victorian government used this expression in their brochure about scratch tickets which they introduced to public transport at the end of 1989. I don't know what the word officially means. To me, it means a small store like a milk bar except larger, with a few aisles of products ranging from chips to chocolates to wafers and biscuits etc. and sometimes imported products if the owners are of a particular ethnic background. It's larger than a regular milk bar but smaller than a Seven Eleven.
