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?

Accidental shoplifter
I went handbag shopping in TK Maxx and found a nice, inexpensive bag I liked. I also found a matching purse, rather more expensive than the bag and couldn't decide whether to buy it or not, so I rested it in the top of the bag (my hands were full) while I continued shopping and forgot all about it.
I went to the till & bought the bag and it was only when I got home I found the purse, still inside the bag, where it had slipped down.
For weeks after whenever I went near that shop I expected someone to grab me and call the police! Sad really.
