If it’s under a certain dollar amount and not to be sold, sure, but this is probably not going to practical for a lot of things unless you’re pretty close to the border.

They will definitely ask if you purchased anything. You can lie but if you get caught expect little to no leniency.
Can you get away with it? Probably, for some stuff. Is it worth it? You’re rolling some dice, you decide.

There is a whole genre of smuggling that is literally just buying a bunch of watches or something and then throwing them in your suitcase and doing exactly this.
If you’re doing it with single items for personal use is it fine? Probably so, as long as you can avoid being extra stupid about it. Is it a good thing to get in the habit of? Oh mercy no.
