Shoplifting
When I was young and impressionable and on holiday in France, I followed some friends into a sweet shop and we each stole something. I was so mortified by this, I returned them.
My lack of French hampered this somewhat - they had no idea why the small English boy wanted to add some chews to the open box, and saw it as an attempt by a nasty foreigner oik to contaminate their stock. Not my best day.
What have you lifted?

I've had a Carter USM flashback
Fill another suitcase
With another haul
Of hotel towels and toothpaste
And the bathroom wall...
The Only Living Boy in New Cross'll be in my head all day now...
EDIT: actually, no. Today's earworm is the Clash's Police and Thieves. Just in case you're interested. It's still appropriate.
