My thought is that you should send the money to Sears, anonymously, get it off your mind forever.

I'll leave it as it is. I think it's better to remember--and the subsequent forty years without repetition. It no longer nags at me. I think I've made up for it.

But if I don't notice it until later, the question then becomes, am I obligated to spend my time and my gas in order to make right a mistake I did not make? My thought is no.

I agree with that.

I recently bought a neck roll pillow from a little internet vendor. He sent me a knee pillow by mistake. It took me a long time to get the correct pillow sent. He has a no return policy. The postage would be about half the value of the pillow. I told him if it wasn't worth it to pay the return postage for the pillow he sent I'd donate it to the Salvation Army in his name. He seems to think I should pay the postage to return it. I agreed to do the work of getting it mailed back to him if he offered a postage-free return label. It's still sitting by my front door. One of these days I will drop it off at the Salvation Army and send the guy the receipt.
