I think there’s some misconceptions about this that need to be cleared up. If you don’t want it and you’ve already moved away from the section, the best thing to do is take it to the register and say you don’t want it. Then what typically happens is it gets put in a take-back cart and the employees take care of it
One of my stranger experiences as a cashier was watching someone waiting to be checked out change their mind and start trying to abandon some ground beef among the candy bars at the checkout. Apparently handing it over to me didn’t occur to them. At least when I pointedly offered, “If you don’t want that I’ll take it.” they handed it over.
No, it’s not. People often forget where they got it from, and it might have been in the wrong place to begin with or already expired. Take it to the front.
