Answer:
If I notice right away, I’d tell them and give it back.
If I notice later on, It Depends™:
If it’s a relatively insignificant amount, I’d mention it and offer to give it back next time I happen by that shop (which might be never).
If it was a significant amount, I’d definitely contact the shop as soon as possible, and try to make some arrangement to return it.
The type of shop would play a large role in determining what I’d consider a significant sum. For a small mom-and-pop grocery store, that might be a couple of €, for a large chain store, probably more like upwards of 20, or even 50
