I do and don't. If I notice it immediately, or moments afterward as I'm counting my change, I go back and give the money back to the clerk. It's the right thing to do and I figure he/she may be out the money and I don't want that. If I drive home for 30 minutes and then notice it, I usually won't bother. I'm an honest person but there are limits. Plus, it depends on how much it is. Larger amounts I'm more likely to speak up.
