I can't remember when or where I first heard the now-ubiquitous "have a good day" (& minor variations, as "have a good un") following every transaction. Perhaps it hasn't supplanted the " y'all come back now" of other regions, but it is heard on all sides in the northeast. Did this come from tv? A. Murie A&M Murie N. Bangor NY sagehen at westelcom.com
