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'm a mug
Having reformed after my various thieving exploits as a youth, I will now tell the checkout monkey if they undercharge me for stuff. If only because I now know from first-hand experience what a tedious, soul-destroying job it can be and how much trouble you can get into when the numbers don't add up.
Unless the monkey pisses me off somehow, in which case it's just desserts, really.
