Actually, I have been cursed at in a Giant on the East Shore. A female customer was power-walking her small bi-level grocery cart and cut me off. When I yanked back on my overloaded cart to avoid colliding with her, I must have grimmaced in pain (I am sole caregiver for a paralyzed family member, and have a bunch of nagging aches and pains). She apparently thought I was making faces at her  and proceded to let fly with a tirade of foul language. At high voice volume. I felt like I was back in New Jersey
For every nutbag I've encountered in stores in PA, there have been dozens of really nice people. And I make every effort to be nice as well.
Wegmans is actually kinda cool. I sent their customer service an email asking not to be mailed coupon books. It's just not planet friendly to drive to another county to buy groceries (let alone cost effective), and it shows a lack of concern for the environment to send people mass mailings they will never respond to. A nice lady emailed me back to let me know they would do as I requested and Wegmans really did drop me from their list. If they open a store on the East Shore near me, I would certainly check them out! Dunno how 'high end' they are. The items in the coupon book looked like fairly typical grocery chain fare. I guess compared to Wal-mart they are pretty swanky.

Except for the fact that I won't have any, because if I'm unhappy with where I'm living, I'll move.

You're missing my point...most people have some kind of problems in this thing we call life no matter where you live,even if where you live isn't the problem.

I think you're just a grumpy dude, who has lived a terribly uneventful life. Point proven.

Well if you stopped dodging my question, and actually tell me why you're stuck here, and can't leave, I'll try to sympathize...
