I hate how contests say "No purchase necessary" when you have to purchase something to get the contest piece. I might go into a Timmies and ask for 5 or 10 cups, and when they say I have to buy them, threaten to charge for false advertising!!













Ok, just kidding.. but seriously.. what does "no purchase necessary" imply? In my mind, that you dont have to buy ANYTHING and you get the game piece without having to buy anything, especially not a cup of coffee. :D

I'm 0 fo 0 so far..

Theres actually a form you can mail away to get a free cup, they'll mail it to you. No guarantees it'll be a winner, but you don't have to pay.
I second that ..Timmies coffee is the shits to put it mildly! Why on earth meatheads would line up to get a cup of crap coffee is beyond me.
Did it occur to you that everyone's entitled to their own preferences? I don't think it's really appropriate to call people who like Hortons Meatheads. Just my opinion.

PS: I don't drink any more coffee/tea during roll up the rim than I do any other time of the year.

It means that if you win, you will not have to purchase anything else to get the prize.
