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?

Ah bollocks to it, as long as you pay eventually who cares.
I quite often go to Sainsburys after work, as soon as I step in the store I become 'hank marvin' so push the trolly round munching on a sausage roll. The check out person usually laughs when they scan the empty package.
If some jobsworth had a go, I would say "right, here's my trolly, you can put all this back" and go and pay for my sausage roll at the express check out.
