Caught changing tags

[newjuan]

There were 2 items, both identical products in the sale. 1 was priced at 1.50 and the other 2.50, but i switched the stickers as the more expensive one had a marginally nicer case. It was stupid and impulsive, and completely unnecessary but i just didnt think much of it at the time. I got stopped after paying for the goods and was made to return it. I was still allowed to keep 2 other items i had legitimately bought. No police were called and no details were taken but I am still paranoid this will somehow catch-up to me. I dont want any form of record and am now worrying about how that would affect my job prospects. Please helpÂ*

No police..no details taken
There will be no further action

Having taken the item back in a saleable condition, did the shop return your £1.50?
