HomeYou have shopped for more than you can afford & now you find that you have to put some things back. Do you feel humiliated having to put these items back?
BTW you are paying with cash, not a card.

Nope. I have no problem putting those shits right back. I underestimated. That doesn't happen often though.

It's happened a couple of times and, yes, I felt like a bit of an ass.

Nah. If I feel my estimation may be off per what I have in the purse, I put the pricey items in the back, like soda or alcohol or medicine. (J/K about the meds!!)

I may feel a tad bit embarrassed, but I get over it real quick.

Yeah it can be embarrassing because the cashier knows the only reason you're putting it back is because you don't have the money to cover it, but oh well....you underestimated. Happens.

Not necessarily, I will put things back that I have the money for if I realize that I don't want to.spend a certain amount if money for it.

at first I am; but then get over it once I realized it's my own fault since I usually ended up thinking I had more money than I actually did in my wallet.

Only if it's a really cheap or single purchase. One time I went to Target to buy Halloween candy. I'm thinking it was cheap and only had a few dollars on me, I take it to the counter and it's a dollar more than I estimated. THAT was embarrassing.

Not really. If the total is getting too high I got NO qualms in telling them to take certain things off.

Nope. American Express never ever leave home without it. Even when I'm running, gotta have keys, ID and credit card.

That hasn't happened to me in a very long time, because I pay for everything with either credit or debit; but even then sometimes I do hold off on certain items if the subtotal is exceeding more than I wanted to pay. No shame in it.
