Would you go back?

How far away is it? After all, it wasn`t your fault. You can tell the cashier what happened the next time you go there.I always do that, but it is usually the other way around. They charge me for something and it is not placed in my bags.

I would call the store and explain what happened, as you just might end up with a free purchase from the grocery store. It happened to me once and the store even gave me a free coupon, as they were happy to have such an honest customer.

I would go back and tell her, that the bags are what you bought that day, not your usual bags from home.

I had something similar happen, only the amount involved was almost $20.00. I called the store and explained that the clerk had failed to charge me for what I had in the bottom part of the cart. I was told to bring in my receipt. when I got there, the manager told me to go get an identical item off the shelf, go through the line again, pay for the item and have the stock boy put it back on the shelf. I got the impression that they would have preferred that I just kept quiet about the matter. This was at the largest super market in the state. The manager might not have cared about $20.00 worth of merchandise walking out the door, but my conscience was cleared when I paid for what I got. In your case, I think I would have kept my receipt until my next visit to that store, showed it to my friend cashier, and explained to her what happened. She could easily add that amount to your groceries and no one would be the wiser.

I don't think it was stealing since you did not realized that you was not charged for them. I would just pay for them the next time you go to the store.

I've actually been faced with similar to this in my life and I have to admit that I've not been the person that has ever gone back to the store to let them know that they had failed to charge me for something. The reason that I don't go back is because it is simply inconvenient to me, I would have to load the kids back up and go back to the store. And then there is always this fear that if I would go back in and tell them that they'd failed to charge me for something that they would turn around and try to accuse me of shoplifting.

Honesty pays my friend and I am sure the cashier and the store will be appreciative of you returning after all it was a genuine mistake, it will earn you brownie points too, I would keep the till receipt and on your next return tell them that it was a genuine mistake. You never know they'll probably turn round and say it doesn't matter and thank you for your honesty, that way next time you shop there you won't feel guilty!

I'd just wait till next shopping trip and then tell her to charge you for them. IF you and she "know" each other, I'm sure she'll be fine with it.

You can sort it out the next time you're there. I wouldn't make a special effort to go back immediately and right things; it's simply not worth it. I would also like to point out that most store mistakes are in the store's favor.

a pleasant day to you ctryhnny, if i will be placed in your shoe, i will go back to the store and inform the cashier that he/she forgot to punch the machine for the bag that i have bought. although i would cost an extra money for me if i need to transport once again. still, i will go back and inform the store about the item they forgot to charge.

Going back to the store even at some other time if it is not possible to do it at present will do. What is important is that you acknowledge that there is some mistake or whatever you may call it. Have a wonderful day!
