I thought this was kind of funny. You're trying to be environmentally friendly and get a mugujang and they still give you a paper cup. I guess people really want to win that Bayliner.
Anyway, for those who find it too hard to roll up the rim, someone has created this device:
Actually, I don't have fingernails so I kind of find it hard to roll those things up with anything but my teeth. Looks pretty undignified but then so does nail biting. Oh well.
Made in Canada. Who says manufacturing is being hollowed out in Canada, huh? |

It's like a lottery/promotion. You roll up the rim and there could be a fabulous prize under the rim. Actually the prize is a boat, a gps device, or a free coffee or donut. |

That was just the one I had in my backpack from the plane ride. The plane air can be rather dry so it's nice to have some mool tissue to, quite literally, stick up your nose and moisten. You need to be discreet of course.
I did bring home several packets of "Vagina Wet Tissue for Lady".
I love KITA has it as a product:

| A functional tissue, "Vagina wet tissue" and cucumber pack are one of the most popular products. |
Vaginae and cucumbers sort of go together like peanut butter and jam, no? |

| The Vagina wet tissue is a necessity of all (real) women. It can be used simply and conveniently during the travel and vacation. And, it is easy to carry. In addition, by adding the sterilization function, which removes harmful bacillus, and as a result, high quality functions are emphasized. |

I thought this was funny. This guy whining (not winning). A few thoughts: you have a 1 in 9 chance of winning, usually a coffee. I've won 4 free coffees in the last month. But I went a while before I won, and then won like three in a row. Random chance is funny that way.
Further, there is no rule that bars Tim Hortons from influencing who wins and where. The big prizes and more frequent wins could be distributed more towards the larger cup sizes. Why not reward people who drink the extra large coffee? Also, there is no rule that says Tims can't control the geographic distribution of winning cups. If someone wins a boat in Dog Vomit, Ontario, the Dog Vomit Courier Express isn't quite the free publicity Tims is banking on. If someone wins a boat in Toronto or London, that's more press. |

| The group I work with drink insane amounts of coffee, always timmys (ugh!_ Anyway, they've won a fair bit in the past week or two, and have noticed that the winning cups have darker ink. Won't help if you're just picking up one for yourself, but if you're on an office coffee run, and everyone's got double-doubles. . . |

WHy is Tim Horton so popular? Buy a can of it (5 bucks) and brew it at home. It's no damn good - worse than Maxwell House or no-name coffee.
Some theories are with the creamers-because I grudgingly admit it tastes good at the stores. Someone said the other day they put nicotine in it...I'm not one for conspiracies but....
Or it's mass bad taste. Line up around the corner for bunk while neat quality coffee shops sit empty.
( I won a donut this year) |

| I dunno, I'm a tea drinker, but I'd guess it's got something to do with the convenience factor. I've never had a job in Canada that was more than a five minute walk from a tims |

I totally agree. I really don't find Tims coffee in stores or at home really good. It's cheap. And loads of places in Canada have no alternative. I think it's just comfort food. Mac 'n' cheese won't win any awards, no-name butter tarts won't win any awards, but damn, it's fine comfort food. |
