One of my college teachers had us do a little experiment....go through the weekend (it was a M W F class) and, every time we would have said 'sorry' to replace it with "I apologize". Though the point of the assignment wasn't strictly just to notice the amount in which we do, or not, say 'sorry' that was definitely a side effect. Everyone came back on Monday realizing just how much we say it, and, how often we do or do not mean it.
