How to Be Polite in Spanish

In Spanish, what do you say when you need to get by someone? How about to get a stranger's attention? What should you say when you're introduced to someone new, or leaving a group of friends? How do you generally have good manners when speaking Spanish as a beginner?

I notice a lot of Spanish learners are unsure how to be polite when speaking, or they mix up certain words, using them in the wrong situations.
