I'm not going back to the store for an error in my favor. If I notice after I leave, that's on you, my life is too hectic to add other errands for strangers to fix their mistakes. And these are all big companies, they can eat the $10 or whatever.

Yes, absolutely if it means their drawer will come up short. If they forgot to scan an item and I see it, I say it. If I am at my car when I realize it, I move on with life.

What's cash?

This! Use credit cards and earn the rewards since you’re going to spend the money anyway. Only applicable if you pay off your car balance every month.

** card balance

10+ years ago I purchased a $900 TV from Best Buy online with in store pickup.
Went and picked it up when ready and followed all procedures. A week later I keep getting emails/texts that I need to "pick up my order or it will be cancelled". Called store and spent over an hour trying to get them to fix it/realize I had already picked it up. Spoke to several managers. Even went into the store and tried to fix it. Nobody could fix it.
Figured after 2 hours + of my time to attempt to correct the matter, I had done my part and I cannot fix stupid.

So I got a free TV

If I notice the missed milk before I pay, I will tell them as well. But once I'm at my car or at home, I'm not going back to the store.

Quite often the actual price or sale price does not ring up on the register; instead a higher price does. Very possible that pricing errors are done intentionally by stores to increase profit margins. Systematic theft. Almost always when I discover such an error, it remains uncorrected days later.

This happens A LOT.

I have a strong personal moral code so I would, yes.

Several weeks ago I was at Wegmans and scanned and bagged my groceries and took them to the car when I discovered one item I'd forgotten to scan and was still in the basket. I went back inside and paid for it.

Just who I am. I am still tormented by a magazine I stole from a doctor's waiting room 20 years ago! Even though it was already dated and there was a huge pile of magazines.
