Re: Red cups with the funny rim back at Timmie's

Unless they look the same, they typically have expiration dates.

Just saw they have "Free coffee for a year"', which they define as 6 $100 Tim Hortons gift cards.

Is there anyone else here besides me that isn't a fan of Tim Hortons?
If I have to get a cup to go, I much prefer McDonald's coffee.

I usually brew my own, get McDonald's when out on the road. But often with coworkers we will meet at a local Tim's as they are more frequent.

I have always found Tim Horton's weak and yet bitter. Ironic really. It does explain the popularity of "double-double".

LOL - that's not much, but their idea of quality coffee isn't up to much either. Timmies is becoming more niggardly in the prizes they hand out.

I can't stand either of those coffees. We have an espresso machine at home, so I will just drink that.

On the rare occasion that I do drink coffee outside, there are two small places next to my workplace, one is a pastry/dessert shop, the other is a chocolate artisan shop where they make their own chocolate. The coffee at those places is same price as Timmie's, but the quality is a million times better as it's freshly ground and prepared on the spot.

Have a nice Delonghi drip + expresso maker. It gets used once and a blue moon, now my French press gets a workout 4-5 times a week.

First cup, and I get a free donut. Yechhh.

Give it to someone homeless, about the nicest thing you can do with a Tim's "donut"

Of the major chains, I prefer Timmies... Starbucks is too bitter; ditto for Timothy's.

McD's is pretty decent; and I really like Robyn's, but they aren't anywhere to be found in Southern Ontario anymore (Marathon is about the closest they come anymore...)

Timothy's, William's, Coffee Culture all decent alternatives.
