Do British people say "cheers" to mean "Goodbye"? According to the cambridge dictionary it's an informal way to say "Goodbye". Also one of my professors, who speaks with a mancunian accent, say "cheers" when we leave his classroom. We're both Chilean. But, do you really say that? Is it common to hear people saying "cheers" when leaving, or is it a regional idiom?

I use it instead of thank you when speaking - "cheers for that" or just "cheers". When writing I use it to sign off informal messages, usually emails.

Here in England, we mostly use it as another way of saying thank you. We also use it before drinking with friends e.g. before a meal or at the pub. :)
