What would you do if you find something that you did not buy...

As long as I get what I wanted to buy, I just look at the xtra stuff as freebies. But one time when I went thru drive up to have my groceries loaded I didn't look what cart they grabbed. It wasn't until I got home that I realized that all of the groceries weren't mine. LOL So I took them back and there sat the other lady with my cart, waiting for her groceries to come back to her.

I havent encounter it yet that theres an item that was not in my grocery receipt but was included in my bag but i have encounter that theres in a receipt but its not included in the bag.i feel sad and worried about it i do come back to grocery when i can and have time but sometimes i just let it because i dont have time to go back,and i think its hassle for me to go back.Now i do check all the items and receipts if its right no more no less so it wont be alright, no hassle.

I never had that experienced neither it is something that i paid nor not paid ... I'll make sure if this is really my things before i plan returning it back with one exception condition just like you lol

It never happen to me. I always put the thing that I buy in the shopping trolley and the things I buy always the same with the receipt. keep post Happy myLotting...

This never happen to me yet. However, if it really happened, most probably I would keep quiet about it. :P

It depends on where I was when I noticed it. If I was still in the store then I would return it. But if I had already left the store then I wouldn't bother, especially if my oldest son was with me. With him being autistic it could be difficult to try to return something that I didn't buy.

Having something extra in my grocery bags... that never happen. But having some extra items in my receipt, that was the worst day for me... I couldn't figure out what was it as all the stuff I bought are all under the price of $50... and there came $98... I'm so piss!!!

Well, sometimes not most of the time.. But I don't returned the item to the grocery store since I don't much time to go there and returned it.. I'll just keep it.. And besides it is not my fault why it includes there..

I got a whole bag of things that weren't mine, but I didn't know until I got home. Three hours away. Too far to go back and so I kept it. There was cleaning supplies, accent seasonings, salt. It funny to see what other people buy.

Well lucky for you! I agree we should return things that might have been accidentally placed inside our shopping bags but of course if it would cause us a lot of trouble then it could be acceptable that you keep it. If i am the company that had that lost and you were from a far place, I'll just let it go because it might be more trouble for both parties.

I would most likely return it to the store, but if the cashier put it in my bag and if I didn't notice it until I got home I might consider keeping it.

at present no incident like that happened to me.bu one of my oficemates had the experience and i want to share it to you guys.She bought sandals from from a department store here in Alabang Philippines.As i could remember the brand name was Rusty Lopes.She bought a size 8.When she reached her apartment and opened the shoe(well,sandalas)box,it has a pair of sandals in size 8 and an unpaired one in size 6.looks like the sales lady forgot to remove te display sample.The next day,she told us(her officemates)what happened.Stores well,department stores here in the Philippines allows customers to return and ask fo an exchange for goods bought with defects or wrong sizes within 7 days if you were able to keep the receipt.To make the long story short,one of our guy officemates asked for the unpaired sandal,took her receipt(with her consent ofcourse) and went back to the mall,not to return the mechandise but to ask for its partner.The customer did not ask anthing and willingly gave it to him.He ended up giving the sandals (whisch is already a pair now) to his girlfriend.Talk about honesty right?

if i understand you fery well you sound like all this items you never paid for them? if you never paid for them why return them to the store? you should consider that as your gift from no one.thats your gift for time you take to go to the store. i never return those kind of items,infact i am always looking to get those,not like i wanna steal them or something.God doesn't give gifts with his hand

I think this has happened to a lot of us from time to time. I find you also have to check your receipts to make sure you get everything as well. We once were charged double for something and the only way to get the Refund back on our card was to go back to the store we bought the item from. So I guess the only thing a person should do in either case, is watch as their items are rang up, and then double check the items and then the receipts as well before leaving to make sure everything adds up as well.

I will surely try to return it if i get address or if i am able to trace the address.

I have never had that happen, I would like to say that I would return it but if it was from a store in another town, I know that I wouldnt. Im not gonna waste gas or my time for their mistake. I dont understand how something would get into a bag that was not on the conveyor belt either. Assuming they have a conveyer belt like us that is. In the end I might or might not return it depending on the circumstances.

Well, i've met the same situtation.When the store is near from my house,i choise to return it to the store at once.however, when the store is far away, just like you the second time, i keep it. "the item is not on my grocery receipt but is included in my bag",it's not my fault. i don't have to pay money and time for it.

rosedust82 I have had that happen a few times and I did not bother to return the items as it would have cost me more than the price of the item to return it,and I dont have extra money to toss around.specially as most times it turns out I am the one missing an item which probably' landed in someone elses bag. turn about is fair play.

If I'm able to then I return the item to the store. There was one time that I couldn't return the item and that's because it fell out of the bag and broke.
