    no i didn't get caught, i went with a friend and i took the glasses. i left before my friend because i was frustrated. then the person in charge of the store said to my friend :did your friend take the glasses because its missing. My friend then said that he was sure i didn't take them. then the person responsible of the store said yes i am pretty sure he did.I think that they might look and check in the camera and there is a big probability they see me
    what do you think i should do, should i return it myself today? or keep it and never come near that store?

    please help me

    If and thats a if they have you on video do they have any inofrmation on you that could allow them to find you? If not then its unlikely (but not impossible) for them to find and charge you. What you might do is mail the glasses back to the store with no return address

    I think you should do the right thing. Go to the store apologize for taking the glasses and return them to the store. I think they would be quite impressed and thank you for eventually coming to your senses.

    To the other posters: Why not encourage this lady to do the right thing. That is the problem with this country. No one wants to take responsibility for their actions. Finally someone is asking for advice on what to do and you give her nonsense advice.

    Sorry, Just my opinion

    Because if he returns to the store he will probably get arrested right then and there. That's why everyone is saying to mail them back. That's still the right thing to do and it's better advice than suggesting him to go back so he could get arrested.

    People make stupid mistakes, I don't believe whoever started this thread is a bad person, but if they are willing to return what they stole with no pressure from anything, they shouldn't have to voluntarily screw up the rest of their life.
