Well I didn't lol In the sense that i have seen silcone muffin trays arounds etc but i didn't know they made mats that you can put in oven! That's great cose not only can i use it for rolling fondant but i hate lifting my cookie dough cutout off my cutting board and changing their shape a little in the process to put on my baking trays when i can just cut out my shapes, lift the excess off and just put my mat on a tray in the oven. Woo hoo!
Also was a bit iffy though about using silicone in the oven but found out it was perfectly safe and no chemicals get into the food or anything 
SILICONE MAT I SAW WAS:
# Made from silicone
# Heat resistant
# Replaces baking paper on biscuit trays.
# May also be used as a work surface for kneading dough.
# Ideal for making praline and thin sheets of toffee.
# Stain and warp resistant.
# Measurement markings along each edge (in inches and cm).
# Rolls up for easy storage.
# Suitable for coated or non-stick bakeware.
# Microwave safe.
# Dishwasher safe

They have them for EVERYTHING - great for your barbie - when you don't want this mornings bacon & eggs to taste like last nights Atlantic salmon.
I have bought the baking roll and cut it up into strips, squares and circles and use them as cake tin liners - FANTASTIC and no more cutting bakepaper etc. They wash in hot soapy water and nothing sticks!!

I read the barbie thing and thought "How do you use them with a doll? 
"
Course then I realized you're in Australia and it made a lot more sense then
ApplegumKitchen: cool! and lol to the toaster pockets on the website
cakesbycathy: as soon as i read barbie i though i don't think some people are going to get that lol
Edited to say: I really want that mat now cose i am doing some cookies today, would have some in so handy 
Yeah what Mike said.
Roll & cut your cookies out on parchment paper.
You don't wanna cut those things way too expensive.
I think they look like a fab little invention, Very helpful indeed! I didnt realise they were expensive, they sell a similiar type in a stall in my local market, there not expensive but not the silpat brand( im british ) i wonder if theyll work as good as the silpats
Well yeah I've got several non-silpat silicone mats that I really like. I think the gold standard is if it's all silicone or if it's got other stuff in it besides silicone. But the silpat brand is way pricey huh.
Plus I have an off brand that imparts the plastic-y taste to the cookies--not cool! It obviously is not 100% silicone.
But they are so much fun--it's a learning curve to get used to putting them into the heat huh.
Hmm i was going to buy 1 silicone baking mat for rolling out my fondant and baking but i think it would be too small for one and too large for the other, it is 44.5 x 33 cm.
Maybe i should buy a Non-Slip Silicone Pastry Mat instead for the fondant, i found one 49 x 39 cm for $23 AU, is that good? and maybe get a small baking silicone mat also even though it will cost me more all up....though it isn't really THAT much bigger
Elise - just go down to Bunnings and grab a metre of their "off the roll" clear PVC - its great to use as a non-stick roll-mat - cheap AS!
Just make sure you hang it up on one of your skirt hangers - because once you fold it or even roll it - it is hard to get any creases out.
