Let's say at Disneyland they gave you three Dole whips instead of the two you ordered. It's fine to eat that third one

If someone else eats it for free that makes it moral? Are you suggesting to give

If 100% know that they won't take it back and they don't care, why should I?

Some would say reading scriptures is also a "waste of time." That doesn't affect whether it's right

They can't re-serve it. They would just throw it away.

If you handed it back to them, they have to toss it in the trash.

I consider it balancing out the universe from the 10 other times when you left the drive-thru

If you win more than you lose on the drive-thru transaction, then you're probably stealing

How often would you go back in and get the missing one if they messed that up?

My wife would. Every single time.

Maybe he gave him 2 cents change.
