Ive heard it all over the place here, but also while i was studying acting in melbourne. i personaly dont really like it.. it always sounds a bit goofy to me, and i never say it... i like the good ole 'good luck' - im not one for superstitions... I think its definately an australian thing though... but hey.. maybe not??
