Yes I do if it is in the street, actually now when I think about it, I don't say anything if it is at home.

This question brings up an article I read in the Readers Digest. They did a survey type of thing with a female and a male and they flew them to alot of major city's in the world. I think it is quite incredible that NY city USA got an 80 and was rated the highest in the world (only US city they surveyed) compared to any other country with being polite. The 3 things they surveyed was 1. If some one holds the door for you entering a coffee shop. 2. If you dropped a bunch of papers you were caring did a stranger stop and help you pick them up. 3. If a server or cashier said Thank You when you purchased something. So everyone out there that says Americans are rude you are proven WRONG!!!!!!!

I do say excuse me in the street even if I am not the one who bumped into them. At home no, I just say "sorry".

Yes I do and I say excuse me when I reach across someone or accidental walk between two people.When I sneeze.And every other time that it is appropriate.People just don't have manners anymore.It pisses me off.

yes, i do.
in fact, i also say it for the people who bump into me: "excuse you." sometimes they get embarassed and say "excuse me" or they ignore you, or they get nasty.
