Thread: Store gave me too much money back. Now what?

I agree.

Keeping the money is bad karma!!!!They WILL figure it out when they do their books. What comes around goes around. I would never even consider keeping the money.

I believe that once this money is traced, you'd be looking at some serious criminal charges had you kept this money. I still cannot fathom how people find theft acceptable, but maybe that's just me.

I love your sense of humor.

It doesn't matter even if they could not trace it back to you keeping it would have been wrong. I am glad that everything is back where it belongs.

wow, that is not anything to brag about, how would you like it if the opposite happened, you would be so mad and yelling and screaming until they fixed the mistake. Eventually someone will find the mistake and hopefully the guy does not get fired over it. Please let them know you are messing with peoples lives!

never mind
