I never complied during the mask mandates in my state except for my five year old daughters gymnastics class because it was important for her. Menards twice told me to put one on so I stopped going there and probably won’t go back. I had one mom and pop shop tell me to put one on I told them the same as Menards. No and walked out. The local supermarket/hardware store made it obvious that they were anti mask mandates and never said a word. Same for one of the local gas stations in which none of the employees had mask on. Other stores that I went to when absolutely necessary sometimes asked me if I needed a mask. I told them no thanks and was left alone.

Nobody should be compelled to wear a silly mask. We’re two years in with mask and vax and all of the BS. It’s a nasty cold it probably isn’t going away and neither are mask until people refuse to comply. Refuse to wear one if a store tells you you have to make a small seen and walk out and shop elsewhere.
