We just got a new cat. We went to the pet store to pick up some cat food. At the check out the girl was very chatty. She gets us to sign up for one of those cards to get coupons and discounts. As we are being checked out the girl is talking cat food with my wife. She decides we need to talk to some pet food rep. who was there that day and runs off to get him. She brings this dude back to talk cat food with my wife and then runs off. We finish talking cat food with the guy and grab our stuff and leave. When we got home, the phone rings. Its the pet store girl, we left without paying. She rang it up and bagged our stuff, but didn't get the money. My wife was so busy talking cat food and I was so distracted trying to get out of there we didn't notice. They got our phone number from the discount card application we signed up for. It was a little embarassing, but just more annoying that we had to run back to the store to pay.

I always use credit. Debit cards don't have as much protection and checks are a pain.
