Default Roll up the rim

What are you guys at? Since the start I've had 30 cups and 8 wins. Decent ratio compared to last year. Only won donuts and coffee though

I don't buy a lot of coffee, but I'm still at about 2 for 4. Both coffees, both given away because I figured I wouldn't use them.

I drink enough Tim Hortons that I should almost have shares in the place. All I have won so far this year is 3 coffees.

Default Roll up the rim

So I was in Tim Hortons the other day and this guy starts jumping up and down and yelling and making a ruckus. The manager comes out to see what's going on and the cashier says "This gentleman seems to think he won a motorhome on the roll up to win cup". The manager says that's impossible, we are not giving away a motor home. The cashier says I know, that's what I tried telling him but he won't listen or calm down.

So the manager approaches the guy and says Sir what is going on? The man replies as he's jumping around I won a motor home, I won a motorhome. The manager says, sir that's impossible, Tim Hortons is not giving away any motorhomes, a car yes but not a motorhome.

The man says no I won a motor home, and proceeds to show the manager his cup. Which read "WIN A BAGEL"

No luck this year. I have bought lots of coffee for others and for the office that were winners but... I am personally about 0 for 30 so far
Did pretty good on the last run but this year not so much

Bought 2 won 1 coffee that I haven't redeemed yet. I rarely go to Tims, McDonalds has better coffee, better insulated cups and 1 in 7 free coffee on their coffee card thing.

I also had a co-worker win 100 dollar Tims card. I've won a doughnut out of about 10 coffees bought.

They'd have to pay me to drink that swill, no contest with lotto-like-odds are going to get me in the door. Funny how a place with crappy coffee, and even crappier food and donuts (pre-made, reheated junk food IMO), the vast majority of employees are TFW's, yet it has become a Canadian icon. LOL!

I'm rarely one to take offence, I just find myself irritated by people who go out of there way to whine.

And to stay on topic, I'm roughly 4/40

I won on my first 3 this year. Now, I'm 6/31 (3 coffees, 3 donuts) and I haven't won in 3 weeks.

Granted I don't have a Tim along my usual routes. So I don't get them often. But I seem to only get a gracious invitation to purchase another coffee.
