I'm suprised no one else had mentioned this. I'm suprised by how few people will say anything when they do this to you, or conversely, how strangely people will look at you when you *do* say "Excuse me" as you reach for your Pop-Tarts.
I was looking for new eyeglass frames yesterday, and there was another girl in the store, maybe in her late teens, very early 20s. We were both looking in the same section, and I was standing back aways, just darting in to pick out an occasional one I wanted to try. This girl stood about 2 inches from the frames (and I know it wasn't because she couldn't see, she later pointed something out halfway across the store), giving me dirty looks when I reached for one, and actually walking in front of me to look in the mirror as I was trying some on.
Of course, though, that doens't hold a candle to the tween-age girl who called her mother an f*ing c*nt standing in line at Lerner's. I actually had to silently count to 10 to not turn around and slap the little brat.
Sorry... I'm on a ettiquette/deceny tizzy right now
