[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]I accidentally did shoplift a thing of milk from the giant around the corner [/b]when my kiddo decided she wanted out of the jogging stroller I'd pushed her there in and went running out the door before I made it to the register.  I felt bad, but I had to chase after her so she didn 't run into the parking lot.

But, no, I don't generally think people are thinking anyone pushing a kid in a stroller is shoplifting.  I liked walking to the shopping center in our neighborhood to get the small items we needed.  They fit in the basket, I'd pay at the self-pay and walk home.  I got exercise and errands done ;)[/quote]

You don't have to be pushing a stroller to do this.  I sometimes go shopping with my reusable shopping bags and just put everything in the bags, then unload at the counter and repack after things were rung up.  I had one day that I was shopping, did this and managed to miss a small item that cost around $6.  I got back to the car and did the spot check of my receipt as I usually do and the item wasn't listed, so I looked through the bag and found it.  I then walked back into the store and told the cashier that I had an item that didn't get rung up.  The cashier at the Target looked at me like I was an alien holding some alien ray gun pointed at her head.  She even asked why I came back?  And I said I hadn't paid for it and wasn't going to steal it.  She rung it up, but obviously thought I was crazy.[/quote]
