I now find it very embarrassing to go to TRU and shop with my mom. It is as if
everybody is staring at me, and a couple of times I have heard and seen the
cashiers make rude, sarcastic comments and giving me weird looks. This has
turned me off, and now I need some help. What should I do? I have tried to
just ignore it, but the humiliation feeling keeps nagging me. Has anyone else
had this problem?

Interesting.  Well I started buying LEGO again at 28.  At that point
people probably thought I was buying a gift for my children.  Once
you're older it doesn't matter as much what people think.
