"In the middle of the night Is that your heart you hear…read moreHave you reached your breaking point tonight?" {The Moody Blues) It's about the same size as your Cumberland Farms or Pride gas station/convenience stores but........it has ice cream! Let's start with the gas station aspect, and I have to admit it is sure nice to have another gas station option in Bloomfield. Break Point has 4 gas islands with two pumps on each island. Today, Regular gas was $3.199 for both cash and credit purchases. The gasoline area is kind of tight, especially when consumers park in front of the convenience store's side door, so be careful pulling up to, or leaving the pumps. Inside, the store is very neatly stocked, and the personnel were super friendly. We made a beeline to the ice cream counter and perused their 28 flavors of hard scooped ice cream. A small dish (4-ounce) was $5.25. If we had gone for a bigger portion, 6-ounce or 8-ounce would have cost $7.25 or $9.25. I decided on a small dish of their PB Chip Swirl, and my wife asked for some Coconut and Banana in her small dish. I'm not sure where their ice crem comes from, but it was excellent. The Peanut Butter, Coconut and Banana flavors really popped! Bloomfield Break Point has a pretty cool social media footprint and a wonderful logo consisting of a sunglasses-wearing hot dog holding an ice cream cone and a cup of coffee in its itty-bitty hot dog hands. Why does the logo feature a hot dog? Well, Bloomfield Break Point promises to have "café-style eats and signature hot dogs". They haven't been open long enough to get the hot dogs up and running, but it will be interesting to see what that future component looks like. We had a very positive visit today.

Was told 4 times that there was no prescription in the system before finally being told it was actually unavailable. The pharmacist on duty was helpful and gave me an alternative prescription but Jeanette could use a serious round of customer service training. I felt like I was interrupting her day. No greeting, no smile, just name and date of birth and it's not in the system. No more CVS for me. It only takes one bad experience especially with Walgreens right across the street!
