I read that this is a regional difference.

Here in D.C., "No problem" is a common response.

How about in your corner of the world?

In the UK.. "no problem" or "no bother"
"ah it's cool " Or " it's alright " are also used.

You're welcome, sounds a bit posh and fake.

im from the UK and when i respond to a thank you i have a myriad to choose from, depending on the nature of the reason i got the thank you in the first place. Some of those which i'd normally use are, - "you're welcome", "don't mention it", "glad i could help"

"my pleasure"-which is by the way only uttered after a great romp sex, and sometimes..."ooh please..thank me by cash cheque or money order"...lol....

In my corner of the world, that is, Italy, we answer :' Di niente'
literally = of nothing...but it actually is like saying 'nevermind' or 'don't mention it'...
kinda like that.

I often say no problem, too. My 1st husband hated that. I don't think its a problem to say that. I am from PA.

Alabama - "Thank YOU"....we ephasize the other person here....but obviously if the sitaution calls for a simple "you're welcome" then that comes into play as well...
