Man Finds Used Napkin, Receipt In His Pants From The Iconic

Man Finds Used Napkin, Receipt In His Pants From The Iconic
The Iconic/Facebook

It's a great feeling when a package arrives at your door from a spot of online shopping.

You excitedly unwrap the box, tear out the bubble wrap, try on your pants, and remove a used napkin and receipt for a cheeky dinner at a restaurant on the other side of the country.

Wait. That doesn't sound right.

This happened to Sydney man 'Andrew MC', who posted his shock discovery to online fashion retailer The Iconic's Facebook page on Tuesday.

"Just wondering if you would like the used napkin and receipt for 'The Real Taste Restaurant' in WA that I found when I tried on my pants from the order last week?" he wrote.

"I'm sure it was a great meal, I'm just not interested in keeping the scraps. Happy to send the two back for store credit if required!"

The Iconic saw the funny side to the mix-up and promptly replied and promised to rectify the error.

"I'm so sorry that you received this along with your pants!" the reply read.

"This is not up to the ICONIC standard, it must have slipped though it's quality control check upon return .I will have this issue rectified as a priority! Again, our sincerest apologies and thank you for your understanding!"

All's well that ends well. It could have been worse. At the very least, we sincerely hope the previous owner of said pants enjoyed a delicious feed at The Real Taste Restaurant.
