Went to Kroger self-checkout. Scan my groceries, go to pay and see $75 in the cash back dispenser. Whoa. I take it without a second thought. I feel terrible about it and tell myself next time, I'll do better.

Couple weeks later, I'm shopping again and at the self-checkout. Once again, there's $75 in the cash back dispenser. I take it again and keep it.

During that time, I was struggling financially. On welfare, couldn't buy anything extra other than what WIC gave me. I thought it was maybe a blessing at that time.

But looking back, I think it was wrong to take it. Especially since I was given another chance to right my wrong.

I'm doing better financially now and think it'd be "easier" for me to turn the money in today.

But it still haunts me.
