Cumberland Farms

Today I was starving, so while I was here, I grabbed a premade foot long Itailain sub and it was surprisingly good for only $ 4.99. The staff is away friendly and their gas prices are usually the lowest around.

Been buying gas and lottery tickets for the past five years. Good people, best gas prices you can find.

I don’t stop into this Cumby’s as often as I did when I was still a bum, living in my Dad’s basement.
But I feel like I’ve been coming here my whole life.
Located roughly across from D’Angelo’s and the new Daddy’s Junky Music (Which isn’t nearly as cool as when it was in its historic original location), Cumby’s is smack dab drowning in Salem NH history.
You have the Italian place next door (to the left) that has survived fires and car crashes.
You have Carvel ice cream cakes, the cakes that can’t be cut with a fkn chainsaw.
You have Sheyer’s fish market next door, (to the right), which makes a smell on summer days that has you wishing someone would just go ahead and fart, to cover up that rotten fish stench.
And somewhere in that plaza, there once stood, the Salem NH Pop Shop.
In days of long ago, (As the intro from Voltron went), before 2 liter plastic bottles of Coke and Pepsi, Pop Shop was where you could get 24 little 10 ounce bottles of any kind of Pop (i.e. ‘soda’) that you could imagine.
Cumby’s today is a clean and well organized store, with cold sandwiches, cold beer, knowledgable staff, cheap cigarettes, reasonable gas prices, and those Slim Jims with cheese for 2 bucks that may gross out your roommate, but taste so good when you’re a tad hungry.
One night, many moons ago, I was getting a cup of coffee at Cumby’s, on my way home from God knows where, and ended up with some spillage; I grabbed a paper towel, cleaned it all up, and went on up to the counter to pay for my shit.
The girl behind the counter gushed over the fact that I was the only person she’d ever seen clean their own ‘coffee mess’, and let me have whatever the f – k I was buying that particular evening for free.
It’s nice to make a difference, however small, in someone’s life. I became a permanent fan of Cumby’s, Salem NH, that night, and never looked back.
The Human Adventure is only beginning…

This stores sells cheap gas. Not the cheapest in the area (Irving, Hess, Oasis) but will do.
The store is older and not too clean. They sell beer, soda, milk and ciggs, lotto, and all that convenience store crap.
I have observed the staff being rude and unprofessional.
I will leave it at that.
