What would you do?

I've posted this survey on several message board sites and not one person said they would keep the item! Maybe it was how or where I was brought up, but I'm incredulous that everyone would choose to just give it back. I've been to garage sales and actually seen people doing the "five finger discount". They usually work in pairs - one engages the seller in conversation to distract them while the other helps themselves. I've been taken so many times by garage mechanics and home maintenance contractors, I guess I'm a little sour.

You asked what would "we" do for another person relying on our personal character. It does not pertain to thieves, or unethical businessmen exploiting others. Do they exist? You bet! "They" are not "us".
