I agree, I think it is definitely an NC thing. I go to school in Georgia and have spent a good deal of time in Virginia and South Carolina and have only heard the "Satterdee" or "Sardee" used in North Carolina. Come to think of it, Sardee is probably just a shortened version of Satterdee.
If the accent drives you insane, move to Raleigh, almost getting more common to hear a Jersey or Boston accent at the grocery store, damn growth of the RTP.
Thanks for the reply, good to know I'm not the only one that notices this!
