This. Since the Haseotes family sold a few years back many of the shops, even the recently remodeled ones have gone to pot. Some new stores now have no managers and they are filthy (even by Cumby's standards) and some of the stuff I've seen employees do with food would get them shut down if a health inspector saw it.

These days ours is little more than a place for cheaper gas, cheaper coffee and a spot for people to use the restrooms to wash their balls and shoot up.

Holy shit - I had no idea they sold! We've got two of the remodeled stores out here on Nantucket, and over the past few years, one of them has completely lost the plot - always filthy and half-stocked - but the other one is "great."

Honestly it's all about the manager.

One I stopped at recently where the lady who was making the breakfast sandwiches had a customer bring her German Shepherd into the food prep area, feed the dog hot dogs from the cooler, let the dogs lick her hands and face and went right back to making breakfast sandwiches without changing gloves or washing hands.

I like dogs and all but that's nasty AF.

I've been to that particular location a bunch of times and it always looks like a bomb went off in there (dirty, boxes everywhere, workers smoking butts outside the door right next to the propane tanks.) Total shitshow.
