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?

Can anyone beat this for age?
When I was about one and a half years old my mum took me with her when she went food shopping. As pushing an arsey toddler around in a buggy at the same time as marshalling your shopping isn't the easiest thing, she stored a few things (notably a whole chicken) in the tray underneath my seat. After paying for her purchases and getting out to the car, she discovered the chicken still sitting there unpurchased.
So I was an accomplice to some shoplifting before I was two. Excellent.
