I used to get several chances to win per day, but this time I am 0 for 0 as I haven't had a Tim's coffee since December.

I was the same way, but I finally decided I could find better ways to spend, at my last estimate, about $3k per year.

Yup, I am around that, about $5.00 per day during the week and about $10.00 per day on the weekend. As of March 3rd, there will be a Timmies in our cafateria at work and I drink about 4 or 5 coffe at work so it will now be about $15.00 a day during the week. What to hell, waste on on golf equipment or coffee... same difference.

But for $3k you can almost buy a nice putter.
That is not a waste is it?

I'm enjoying a nice cup of Pres Choice custom perked.
I have never understood why anyone would prefer Timmies over a pot you make at home. You can buy the exact coffee you like and brew it to your personal taste for a fraction of the price. Get a coffee maker for at work. Then use the money you save on green fees.
I even know people who will leave the house, drive to Timmies return with the java and walk right by their own coffee pot as they walk through the kitchen.Life dinnae come wit gimmies so yuv got nae chance o' gitt'n any from me.

I never understood what the big deal with tims coffee is. Sure If I'm running late and I need a fix before my round I'll stop by and also grab some breakfast as well but to leave the house for coffee when I can make it at come, and make it more to my liking? Doesn't make sense. Heck, I could drink gourmet coffee for the rest of my life and it would still be cheaper than drinking tims everyday.
DK's post reminded me of something I had read a while ago, here it is :S I wonder how someone found out about this
-------------------
Kopi Luwak is a rare and gourmet coffee from Indonesia that is made from beans passed through the digestive system of cat like animals.
The Truth:
Kopi Luwak does exist, is very expensive, and is made from coffee beans passed through the digestive system of an Indonesian cat. The people who harvest the digested beans don't really have to pick through cat litter to get it. The animal processes the beans and excretes them whole, unscratched, and without dung.
According to the Manila Coffee House, the palm civet just happens to like to ingest the ripest and reddest coffee beans, which also happen to be the ones best for brewing. The cat eats the outer covering of the beans in the same way that is accomplished by de-pulping machines. Something happens to the beans in the journey through the cat's intestines that gives it a flavor that is celebrated by coffee drinkers.

It's not that it's good. It's that it's addictive. And it's not just the caffeine. A couple summers ago when I was back in Ottawa I had timmy's every morning. Got back out to BC, where Timmy's is scarce, and after my morning cup of coffee from the campus coffee shop (better quality than Timmy's, actually), it just felt like it hadn't quite done the trick. Something was missing. Have you ever noticed that, once Timmy's gets cold, or if you leave the dregs out overnight...it kind of smells like an ashtray? I swear, they put some nicotine, or crack, or nutmeg in that stuff. But I'm not complaining. I love it.

I love my Timmies for sure.....never really cared much for it until I lived in Hamilton for a few years. Where there is At least one tims per block. I am the guy that leaves the house gets my Tims and walks right past my coffee maker at home.

I have been known to go to Tim's and bring one back home for my wife in the morning before I leave for work.

Good marketing by CS. CS actually brews a better tasting cup of coffee. But there is something about Tim's...
I used to not be able to drive by the Tim's that's on my route to work without stopping, but now I brew my own Sumartra (Starchukkers) at home - decaf nonetheless!www.chapeaunoirgolf.com
