Fucking hell, there's no way. The goodbye notion sounded outlandish to me, but could it be the same as OP?

Now, I'm having second thoughts. Would I say it to a baker after buying a pastry? Yes. If I ran into a friend while out on a trip would I say it? No, I don't think so, but do I? Maybe as in "good seeing you"? How confusing.

I've absolutely heard it used that way, in 1990s West Midlands England.

Person seeing me walk out the door: "Cheers! See you tomorrow!".

you're suggesting a family member might say this as you were leaving?
