I’ve been giving this some thought and perhaps the best thing to do is to just send a money order anonymously to the store for the price of the cones.
True, it’s not a perfect solution. A perfect solution would have me going to the store owner and personally apologizing for ruining the sale (even though it was the right thing to do). But (a) I’m too cowardly for that and too non-confrontational to do that and (b) I’m afraid to open myself up to further liability (perhaps he might claim that because of the loss of those few dollars he suffered additional losses for which I should now be responsible…).
Yeah, it’s nothing more than a meaningless salve for my conscience and not truly meaningful in any way, but it’s better than nothing I suppose.
