If I didn't notice until I got home, I don't think I would drive back. But in 99.9% of all cases, yes I'd go back. And "Targhetto" is my favorite freaking store. Mr teases me all the time about it.

I always have to remember I'm setting the example for my children. Last year my daughter (who was 12) was checking out at a Tar-ghetto (sorry, but I'm so going to have to use that) and the cashier gave her back $10 too much. My daughter handed the money back to the cashier and told her the error. The lady could. not. believe. that my daughter was being honest. I think that's a very sorry state of our society that she was shocked.

Truthfully, it did happen to me the other week with a smaller purchase. The cashier and I had actually had a conversation about the item and she somehow didn't ring it up. I didn't realize it until I was in the parking lot, had the toddler buckled into his carseat on a bitterly cold day and the engine was running. The previous week I returned an item to the same store, an item that was unopened and was selling from a shelf in the front of the store. They charged me a 20% restocking fee which I thought was utterly outrageous (it's a craft store and it was a storage item). In the end, I reasoned that the item I ended up getting for free was paid for with that restocking fee. I'm not necessarily happy about that decision but I wasn't about to take a 2yr old BACK out of his seat, into the cold, and wait in another 10min line to tell them they forgot to ring up a $10 item. In my own defense, I have pointed out missed items in the past when I'm still in the store. I’d like to think I’d do the same as you, particularly since you hadn’t left the store.
