Yes. I stole some food from a supermarket in Seattle back when I was in my early 20s because I was broke and very hungry. I felt guilty about it for years. So...in my mid 30s I estimated what it had cost and adding more for inflation, I sent the money back to the supermarket along with a letter of explanation and an apology.

The supermarket manager wrote back saying he was really surprised; they'd had a lot stolen over the years but until my letter/repayment, they'd never had anyone give anything back.

I stole a piece of candy from a store when I was 6 years old. My father made me return it and confess to the store owner. I might have gotten a spanking, but all I remember is the confession. I have never stolen anything since then.

I tried a skirt on under my own clothes in Woolworths when I was 2 yrs old and my Mum only discovered the skirt when we were on the bus on our way back home erm oops 🙊🙈

Gum when I was about 3 years old. My mom made me go back and tell the lady who owned the store and take her money from my piggy bank.

Accidentally in first grade took something home.The nun got so angry.I was afraid of her.

Nooo, if I had I would've felt such intense guilt I would have returned it immediately

You a cop? 👀

Yes but it was by accident. I had accidentally stolen a can of ginger ale. I paid for everything else I had purchased but forgot to take the ginger ale off my pocket as they didn't have a cart. I realized this when I left the store.

I did want to go and pay for it but I was scared they'd charge me for theft because of the color of my skin.

🤫 , but maybe 😏

Yes

No, not even as a child. My father used to complain about people following us in stores, because he was scrupulously honest. One thing he always said was,

“there’s nothing a person can steal worth half as much as being trusted”.

I took it to heart.
