I had gone to the store a few years ago with iPad in hand, I had taken it with me so I could get the right case for it, at the time I had an IPad Air 2, I had either dropped it or left it in the cart, but something told me to go into the grocery store to see about it, and sure enough it was turned in, nothing was out of place, and I was relieved because I really didn’t want to have to worry about getting another device, I actually gave that one to my niece after I got the IPad 6 because her Dad and my Mom made her replace the one she had broken, she literally exploded the battery in mine by binge watching Friends on it, despite the fact she could have done that on the t.v lol. I got the IPad Six about two years ago, which Little Miss got when I upgraded to the Pro, my brother actually chipped in to help me with that.
Anyway back to my story there are good people, and not so good people in this world, the other day a bag worth of purchases went missing at Walmart no we never got them back, and I try not to stress over it, I just like to think a family in real need got the stuff. None of it was huge, it was smaller purchases, but I can just hope that someone who could truly use it got it, I will happily bless others if they are in need of food, but when people just take to take I have a real issue with that.

You are right I think it is wrong to take what is not yours just because you might be tempted or you have the opportunity,

So true like I said if it had been someone with a kid who needed what I had, I’d be glad to give it to them..l

I agree, the world has both good and not so good people. I've lost things and had them returned to me when I least expected it. But some people will go out of their way to steal from others when their situation is not even that desperate.

It's okay, I'm just hoping they went to someone who really needed them....

I am so sorry for your grocery bag that got lost. I can't be those type of people who find something that doesn't belong to them and just take it with me as if it was bought by me. I would definitely take that bag to a supervisor, or any person who works at the supermarket so they use the speakers and say if someone missed a bag or something!

Actually it was the iPad Air 2 I lost, the iPad 6 I bought about two years later, then gave it to Little Miss when my brother bought me a refurbished ipad Pro which I love...
