For some reason, I ordered two soft serves at Macca's for me and my friend and there was two soft serve cones printed on my receipt and when my order's ready, I saw the worker took out three cones and filled all three of them. I do not know whether this is an error as it shows two soft serves on my receipt but shows three on the actual order. Please feel free to post some of your opinions on if it's a mistake or not.
In my opinion it was a mistake.
Or did they give the third one to someone else?
It's a new offer. Buy 2 get 1 free. I'll post it as a deal soon.
At Macca's, where's the deal? They say I have to show them.
Patience my child. I said I will post it tomorrow.
Yesterday you said today…
You need to polish you MS Paint skill. It shouldn't take this long.
available for a limited time
You should have told the store they made a mistake and then asked the manager to give you another free one like every store apparently should when they make a mistake
I wouldn't wantto cause anymore troubles
I Ordered Two Soft Serve Cones but Received Three
Jesus christ….
I thought my forum topic was lame.
You thought right! 😉
Oh… yeah it was but at least it was entertaining!!
Came here just to say that… Wtf
Top comment for sure. This is ridiculous
Under new OHS guidelines,soft serve cones can only be filled to 2 thirds capacity, hence 3 cones, but only sufficient soft serve for two. I presume you returned the third cone when empty.
You take one free ice cream today, you come back tomorrow, McDonald's is closed down.
eh, just make soft serves cost 80 cents
BOHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! LEGEND!
I can't believe the OP thought this was worthy of a question or a forum topic …
At least it was short, unlike the protein bar saga.
I can't believe everyone is wasting their time commenting on here so the topic goes to the frontpage so more people can waste their time commenting.
Damn, I also got sucked in.
These troll posts are getting worse everyday.
I'll take that as a compliment
you got a problem?
I have. Just ordered three cones from Macca’s, one for me, one for the missus, and one for the kid strapped in the baby seat. Problem is, the checkout gave me four cones and now the spare one is melting all down the missus’ arm and onto her jeans and she’s screaming at me as if it’s my fault. Even the kid has started bawling. It’s hell in here. Who’s fault is it? Who can I blame? Guys, help me out.
Blame plane
blame climate change
Humblebrag post?
It's like the baker's dozen. Because of repeated complaints to ACCC and Fair Trading about McDonald's under-filling soft serve cones, they introduced a new regulation that failing to provide the necessary or advertised quantity of a good in trade or commerce by fast food establishments now attracts a penalty of $2,500 per infraction.
Because of that, to be on the safe side McDonald's have started to give an extra of the items on the menu which had the most recorded complaints, including soft serve cones.
well, this is not the first time this happened before
In that Monopoly at Macca's event. I won small fries but got large instead and that got me another two tickets.
Is there some sort of competition going for the stupidest post of 2020 or is the end of the world as we know it?
R.E.M is that you?
or is it that the buy two, get one free thing is a trend.
OP is asking Hungry Jacks for his invoice despite getting the ice cream from Maccas. He plans to claim TRS on the excess ice cream cone.
At least he's not harassing baby bunting this time round
I once ordered a maccas medium meal and got a large chips with it.
This was in the early 00's and to this day I am still haunted by not knowing whether it is a mistake or not.
I guess the only resolution for people in our position is the sweet release of death.
You should create a new post about it. I'm waiting
Take one back and ask for a refund. Then you will get your original order for half price
Bikies
Nope they dont do 3 for 2's
Stealing by finding is prosecutable.
I want my 60 seconds back from reading that
Hmmm….I often get 7 wicked wings when ordering 6 and exactly 3 when ordering 3 at KFC. What will happen if I were to order 10? Will they give me 9, to make up for all the times I got an extra free wicked wing? What would happen then? Would I invoke my consumer rights and threaten to contact Fair Trading and the ACCC? Or would I just accept my fate and be content that I have wicked wings to eat? Those thoughts often keeps me up at night.
Don’t waste your time with fair trading or ACCC. Go straight to the prime minister.
By way of OZB? Thank you . I will ;)
JJB: Hey, Mr Prime Minister. ANDY!
@tomsco: The question is , is it a bootable offence? I wouldn't want to bother Andy for anything less 🤔
oh! Andy this guy says he paid for 2 soft serves and got 3!!
Anus reply > That's a bloody outrage
I ordered wicked wings from KFC, but they were not wicked at all so I lodged a complaint with ACCC.
(profanity)
How do some people get through life?
So who ate the third cone, you or your friend and how did you decide who would eat it?
The answer is in another post.
The result will shock you!
My friend ate the third soft serve. Should I take him to small claims?
The answer is in another post.
Hopefully in another forum.
we rock paper scissors for it
No one cares about your three cones. That's just an anomaly.
It's when you get 7 mcnuggets in your 6 mcnugget pack that that is worth creating a post about.
Come back when that momentous event happens to you, OP.
Thought the cones were had before a late night Maccas run.
I'm only commenting to bring this important announcement to the front page.
The server has a crush on you, have you yh extra icecream to show their interest.
This is an outrage.
File a complaint with the ACCC.
It's only one thing that is only worth 70 cents. It's not like it affects the whole franchise or anything.
Then why did you feel it was worthy of a forum topic?
i thought you said 80c?
They don't want Mr McDonald to go to jail or anything
It could be a deal!
No the jokes on you,
The manager said clean out the machine, its been in there too long, so the staff member took the easy way out and dumped the excess into your order…
Hang on for the result…
This is flirting 101.
Why is this a post?
Congrats! This is the dumbest post I've seen on OzB yet…
and this is the dumbest comment I've seen on OzB yet…
and this is the dumbest reply I've seen on OzB yet…
And this is the dumbest sequence of dumbest items I have seen on OzB yet…
Similar thing happened to me at the brothel. Just count your blessings and enjoy the moment!
Which brothel provides soft serve ice creams?
That's going in the suggestion box
Thanks for stirring my coffee. I walked into a Macca's in France just to meet somebody. Big mistake trying my school French. They made small meat out of me and forced to pay for 2 and sequentially served 2 coffees. Lucky my acquaintance arrived helping me drinking the other one. Quality staff, quality attitude!
Just accept the extra soft serve and eat it happily.
ffs
Welcome to the roaring twenties
You're going to hell if you took the extra one without saying anything. Sorry.
Tried this with a family feast meal and it worked! Thanks OP!
Microwave lunchs sorted for the next week!
Why is this not locked as a troll post?
Mods day off?
I reported the thread as pointless and I received a reply message that my report has been resolved with 'no action taken'.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
My opinion is that this thread is the dumbest I've read on OzBargain.
Should have called current affair
Can I leave my shoes outside of the mcdonalds even if the building strata says no?
Not if the gay employee sees you.
Perhaps someone was retroactively hiding an ice cream on your order.
