A few stories people tell about this place

1. Late one night, a delivery driver pulled up to Cumberland Farms and noticed an eerie humming sound coming from inside the gas station's storage room. Curious but cautious, he approached the door only to catch a whiff of something sweet yet strange—like maple syrup mixed with old tires. Suddenly, a voice whispered, ‘Finally someone’s here!’ Startled, the driver saw an old man hobbling towards him, holding a plastic bag filled with who-knows-what. Turned out it was just a regular guy collecting his weekly order of maple-flavored coffee creamer. The driver chuckled as he drove off, thinking, 'Next time I’ll check the fridge before checking the storeroom.'

2. One morning, a delivery driver pulled into Cumberland Farms for a quick coffee break. As he walked past the shelves, something caught his eye—a small, dusty box labeled ‘Free Samples.’ Curious, he opened it and found…nothing but an old, crinkled note that read: ‘Take what you want, leave what you can’t use.’ The delivery driver shrugged and took a stale cookie, leaving behind half-eaten granola bar. Later that day, everyone in town was talking about the mysterious free samples at Cumberland Farms—except no one could remember actually seeing them again. It became a friendly joke among locals: whenever someone needed a snack, they’d say, ‘I’ll just stop by Cumberland Farms for some mystery treats!’

3. One foggy morning, a delivery driver pulled into Cumberland Farms for a cup of coffee. ‘I swear,’ he muttered, ‘the milk here tastes like it’s been sitting around since last week.’ As he was leaving, an old lady approached him with a smile: ‘Honey, that milk is from our very own cows!’ The driver blinked, then burst out laughing. From then on, whenever someone complained about the taste, she’d just say, “It’s fresh as can be—we’ve had it for years!”}

4. At dusk, a delivery driver stopped at Cumberland Farms for a snack. As he approached the counter, a small dog darted out from behind the shelves, yapping excitedly. The cashier just smiled and said, ‘That’s Sammy—he thinks everyone who comes in is here for him.’ Just then, another customer—a regular—walked up and teased, ‘Sammy, you’re such a star!’ To everyone’s surprise, the little dog leaped onto the counter and started dancing on his hind legs, waving a tiny plastic cup. The whole place erupted in laughter as the cashier shook her head and remarked, ‘Yep, that’s our Sammy—the town entertainer.’
