I don‘t go to TH but I have been fortunate enough to find a couple of free coffees under the rims of discarded cups. Usually the only time I‘ll stop at a coffee/muffin joint is on a marathon drive where I only want to break for gas.

Going into a coffee shop to do that seems unnecessarily antisocial. Why not just surreptitiously lift a buttock from the comfort of your driving seat?

I was two for two in my first roll up a rim attempts. Free coffee/tea rather than the big screen TV or the car sadly. I'm not usually a regular customer but have spent rather a lot of time in the hospital lately where the Tim's franchise is the only food service open on the weekend or in the evening.

Maybe if Timmies was more like this place they would sell more coffee.
Do you think she is unreasonable from stopping her husband going for his java fix.
Also puts more emphasis on the double double crowd :lol:

I've only drank TH "coffee" once. Never again. I hope you don't find me tedious in my preference for real coffee?

Novo's right. It's total shit. Really, really bad. But, a buck a coffee what do you expect?

Anyone had one of their new lattes? Presumably made with same shit coffee beans and therefore still shit?

[i'd love to win roll up the rim though]:)

No I was more concerned with magnum being in your area and potentially having you as a subject of his work;)
Maybe that funding came through.

What? Did you bring your own coffee to TH and just asked for an empty paper mug?

I went in there on Sunday morning as there was nothing else in walking distance that served coffee. I stood there for about a minute marvelling that there was a queue but the sickly and rather rancid smell forced me to leave without buying anything. I'm glad I didn't persevere.

Next time stick it out for the Honey & Mustard dressing. Now that's a life changing experience.
