Where to go on the weekend in Melbourne’s West! What’s on this weekend? Where can we go? What can we do? Well, Mamma is here to help you find fun on the weekend wherever you are! Happy Saturday!


What else is happening in the West??


The Salvos Stores Mega Toy Sale is back and it is a good one for families.

On Saturday 16 May, selected Victorian stores are offering a simple deal -
fill a bag with toys for just $6.
Yep, one bag, $6.

It is all part of Salvos Stores’ focus on keeping great quality items in circulation while supporting local communities, and Mamma says it is a great way to grab a few new (to you) toys without spending big.

Head into a participating store, grab a bag and fill it up - easy. Just be quick, as stock will only last while supplies are available.
