If you are asking about it,that means you have it in you to want to do the right thing.Of course you didn't steal them,but to know you have them and to do nothing about it is the same as stealing no matter how you slice it.
Funny story about refunds-a friend of mine years ago bought a tent at Sears for a weekend trip.On said trip,numerous large quantities of beverages were consumed(I wasn't there darn it).He blew chunks all over the inside of the tent.Monday he wrapped the tent up,took it back to Sears and got a full refund.He didn't see anything wrong with that.Of course he did not clean it out first.

I believe it was a manufacturing mistake I also received a new un opened box of strikemaster lazer 8" blades inside was 2 sets!   I thanked my lucky stars for once the little guy got a break from the manufacturer  Prob some 3rd world guy that thought 2 meant 2 sets insteat of a pair!

I doubt anyone will starve or go out of business if you keep their mistake.

Its like a freebee take what the lord says you can handle. Maybe you did something good for another and this is your reward. Do you really think the Corporation is going to reall suffer from your gain... NONONO they have thier prices so high it won't even be missed. This is like gettting a Bakers Dozen 1 extra lol. Enjoy the extra set and have fun.

Its your decision. If you want to try to make it right, don't go to the store where you bought them. They only paid for one set also. Contact the manufacturer.  99 percent of the time, they will say thank you and tell you to keep them. At least they have the chance to track down the problem to keep it from happening again. And your conscience will be clear when you go to use them.

 Do what is right and risk the consequenses...

Has the rain a father?
Or who has begotten the drops of dew?
From whose womb comes the ice?
And the frost from heaven,who gives it birth?
By the breath of God ice is given and the broad waters are frozen.
The waters harden like stone and the surface of the deep is frozen.

Thanks for all the responses.   As usual the majority of you were on target.  I called the store and explained the situation.  They said "No Problem, Keep The Extra Pair".

btw here in Michigan (and many other states) that would be considered a crime if you didnt atleast make the attempt....Its called Larceny by Conversion if they every realized it. Its not stealing....5 finger discount, its "Accepting" property thats not yours and  no intention of returning it to its Lawful owner......good Choice...
