Quick answer
If you want one playful, recognisable treat, start with the MAGNET - ICONIC SCOTCH FINGER or MAGNET - ICONIC GOLDEN GAYTIME. If you prefer a set that captures everyday Aussie life, go for the MAGNET - ICONIC AUSSIE ICONS.
MAGNET - ICONIC GOLDEN GAYTIME
Single magnet vs. a set: what’s your goal?
A single magnet like the Scotch Finger or Golden Gaytime costs around $5–$6 and is a quick, budget-friendly way to add a nostalgic Aussie treat to your fridge or locker. The MAGNET - ICONIC AUSSIE ICONS, on the other hand, is a set (priced at $16.50) that includes multiple icons like the Hills Hoist, Ute, Thongs, and BBQ. If you’re decorating a workspace or want to give a gift that feels like a mini collection, the set gives you more variety in one purchase.
Nostalgia factor: food versus lifestyle
Each magnet draws on a different kind of memory. The Scotch Finger biscuit and Golden Gaytime ice cream are food icons that remind you of a specific taste and moment — sharing a cuppa or a summer day. The Fantale magnet brings back the chewy caramel and movie-trivia fun. The Aussie Icons set covers broader lifestyle memories: backyard cricket, the esky, the BBQ. Think about whether you want a single sweet memory or a whole scene of Australian life.
Decision rules: which magnet to buy first
-
You want a single, low-cost treat magnet: Pick the MAGNET - ICONIC SCOTCH FINGER or MAGNET - ICONIC GOLDEN GAYTIME. Both are under $6 and instantly recognisable. The Scotch Finger works best if you love biscuits; the Golden Gaytime is ideal for ice-cream fans.
-
You want variety or a gift: Choose the MAGNET - ICONIC AUSSIE ICONS set. At $16.50, it gives you multiple lifestyle icons in one box, making it a more substantial present or a fuller decoration for a fridge or locker.
-
You love movie trivia and caramel: The MAGNET - ICONIC FANTALE ($5.84) is your best bet. It taps into the fun of unwrapping Fantales and reading the trivia — a sweet conversation starter. If you’re still torn, buy the single treat magnet first. You can always add the set later.
