Store owner Joanna Nelson says she found the purse at the back door Thursday.
The theft was captured on camera Saturday and police released the video footage to the media. Nelson says she hoped the publicity would help catch the thief, but she never imagined it would lead to the return of the purse.
Police are examining the bag for fingerprints.
