I tried to explain she got my order wrong, but apparently that was impossible. All this for $2.

I once ordered KFC to be delivered and they sent me items 3x more expensive than what I ordered and paid for. So, I called them to tell them (I didn't want anyone to get problems for this mixup). The outlet manager asked me whose name was on the receipt (the person who prepared this order) so I hung up.
this falls under the term "unsolicited goods"
you can keep such without worrying about being sued or arrested.
actually if they come back and try to make you pay for it THEY are committing a crime,
trying to force someone to pay for something they didn't "solicit" is illegal.
Now if this was real full package with someone else's listed address and name on it then it would be categorized as a mistaken package, which you are supposed call the shipping company and tell they got wrong. If, after doing that, they don't send someone to get it back within a reasonable amount of time, as far as I'm aware they cant sue you for keeping it. In the case they accidentally give you someone else's package the law is written so that you aren't to be inconvenienced by the mistake of the shipping company.

that, however, doesn't apply here, this is unsolicited goods, the person ordered something and received things they didn't solicit and are therefor not obligated to return or pay for the goods.
wal-mart and kroger pick-up will do this if they don't have an item you ordered; they go one size up. I've had them do it with jalapenos, tp, kleenex, gatorade, steak, cereal and chicken off the top of my head.
