A question for the masses.
The Setup:
You are driving from Point A to Point B and decide to stop at a random international fast food chain to pick up a snack to ward off impending peckishness. You place your order at the drive thru speaker and proceed to the pickup window.
Your total is $4.00 even.
You hand the cashier a $20.00 bill.
You receive your drink.
You receive your bag of food.
You receive your change.
You drive off.
You stop at a discreet part of the parking lot to put away your change and check that your order is correct.
Your order is correct.
You have received one $10.00 bill, one $1.00 bill, and two $5.00 bills as change.
You have received $21.00 change from a $20.00 bill for a $4.00 order.
You have received an extra $5.00 bill.
You look at the drive thru line and there are 7 cars stacked up waiting to order.
The Question is, "What would you do?"
1) Get back into the queue and face the possibility of a 20-45 minute wait to return the $5.00.
2) Return the $5.00 at a later time when there are fewer people waiting to place an order.
3) Keep the $5.00.

I would have just walked back to the window to give them the 5 bucks back. No need to wait in line for that.

Except that it is longstanding policy that if you walk up to a drive thru window, they will close it and ignore you.

Give the extra $5 to a charity; they need it more that certain international fast food businesses.
These guys are charging you several dollars for example for a Pepsi that costs them a few cents to make; I think they can survive without a few dollars lost because of their mistake.

It's a security thing. People were walking up to drive thrus, acting like they were going to order and then diving in and robbing the place. So, no more walk ups.
