Tim Hortons - Scratch and Win

Roll up the rim time again I never do and my wife bitches at me. "What if you won?" She cannot understand that I don't give a $hit. If I don't look, I won't know.

That promo must work for them, they've been doing it for quite a while now.
I'm trying to stay away from Timmies altogether, so no worries here about winning.

LOL, Ian, I'm trying too but failing....., so Marg and I keep each other honest and we limit our visits and agree to just have a coffee and nothing else.
The coffee we get is XL double cupped so we can share. That's about $.75 each for a nice cup, a warm up in Timmies, and a 15 minute chat.

Not a bad deal long term at that price .

I'm in agreement with you on the Roll up Rim crap, PPP....it's Gimmicky

lol... you have more willpower than I Colin.
It's easier for me to stay away than resist the temptation.

....good idea on the XL double cup.

I stay away from Tims altogether so there's no issue of to roll or not to roll.

Just got my rim roller out of storage and rolled my first of the season. No joy.

Gotta love friends who work at Tim Hortons and hate their job or supervisors. They just give me tons of free coffee or donut roll up the rim for me to redeem .

Of course, they were trying to win a car or something themselves, but that never happened, just to show the odds of winning

haha actually my sister has won everything from coffee/donuts/muffins to a bike. She won a bbq a few years back and the bike she won she got about 5 years ago. She's retarded lucky but now she's in Gaybec, and is too good for Timmys.

HAHAHAH

I love it, I do the exact same thing, buy an L or XL double-cupped. I thought I was the only one...It's not that I need the extra money for savings, but the math just makes sense to do it that way.

As for rolling up the rim, my buddy rarely drinks coffee, bought one, I reminded him to roll it, and guess what, he won an i-pod.

roll em up!

LOL, now that's a sound investment these days.......



Which reminds me of when I lived in Oakville in the 60's when the first Tim Horton's opened -- (not sure if ours was the first, but if it wasn't it was close to the first) -- Talk about 'investment oportunities'.

BTW, does anyone remember Tim Horton and who that dude was? I'll bet he's rolling over in his grave....
