My barista at the coffee shop on 5th Street gave me the wrong change and I didn't say anything.
It was last Tuesday morning, and I was in a real hurry. The total was $4.75, I gave her a ten, and she handed me back $6.25 instead of $5.25. I just took it and left. It's only a dollar, but I keep thinking about it. Do you think I should go back and give it to her?

So you're telling me you got a free dollar and your main worry is giving it back? That's like finding a french fry in the bottom of the bag and asking if you should return it to the drive-thru.

Honestly, I'd keep it. That's just the universe balancing things out. Think of all the times you've been shortchanged or overcharged and didn't notice. That dollar probably covers a past mistake. Plus, going back over a buck feels like a lot of hassle for everyone.
