Yes, I go back.
The problem is that you are NOT going back to help the clerk at the
checkout, because they simply feel that they have been "caught" doing
something wrong. And, if you go back later, and "rat on them" at the
customer service booth, somebody is probably going to get a "talking to"
about the situation.
You have to go back simply because the extra money doesn't belong to you.
Don't do it expecting "thanks", It's just so you sleep better.

I bought a couple sheets of plywood and a nice new 10" saw blade at the
BORG, and maybe another $5 item. When the clerk scanned the cart, I guess
she only scanned the plywood, even though the other stuff was in plain view.

I didn't pay attention until I was pushing the cart out the door, and
glanced at my receipt.

Would you have gone back and informed them of the mistake?
