I went into a major retailer this past Saturday in Ohio to do some shopping. While shopping I realized that I had left my credit card at home. It was then I made the dumb mistake to just take the items that I wanted. As I was leaving the store the security door went off-I just kept walking, the stores employee had tried to stop me & asked if he could see what I had I said no & preceeded to my car. As I left I believe I noticed an employee reading my cars plate. I was worried & upset with myself! I couldnt get past the gulit of what I had done, also I am worried of the police envolment. First thing the next morning, I called a neighboring town (same reailer) & spoke with a manager.(I was scared to go to the actual store I stole from) I told him what I had done & my worries. He told me to just come in and either pay for items or just return them. So I took in the items & paid the them. After leaving that store, I called the store that I had taken the items from & told that manager what I had done. (hoping this would make things right) This manager was concerned with the items not being on their system & asked me to send the reciept to her. I said I would but I am now concern this is not the right thing to do!? She also asked me the time I was in the store & my description. I know that this is so they can look back on the video. I have thought the day through & realized I had taken some more items that I had forgotten about. The dollar amount is not high, but I realize that that doesnt probably matter. I am just worried that the police will be coming to my door and arresting me. I just need answers of what best to do or what usually happens.
