blaque Posted August 30, 2011 Report Posted August 30, 2011 More like the US everyday... Sad really. Think of that as a good thing......better steelhead fishing
smally21 Posted August 30, 2011 Report Posted August 30, 2011 its gonna be called the 'panic attack size' and comes with 6 cigarettes...
NAW Posted August 30, 2011 Report Posted August 30, 2011 Correct me if I'm wrong, but I thought that Tims used to have Extra Large coffies that where huge. A few years back, maybe 6 or 7, they dropped there sizes down smaller.? Anyone else remember this, or have I put to much baileys in my Tims this morning...
smally21 Posted August 30, 2011 Report Posted August 30, 2011 im with you NAW - in college there you used to be a giant coffee we called 'the pail' because it should have had a bucket style handle on it. the coffee was the size of an apple juice can. if i drank a whole one i'd curl up in a ball in the corner and shake for a few hours....paranoia, hallucinations, frequent urination, etc. don't know when it went off the menu but good riddance. it was like a speedball in a paper cup!
BillM Posted August 30, 2011 Report Posted August 30, 2011 Think of that as a good thing......better steelhead fishing Eh, there isn't much south of the border that can even hold a candle to a Notty or Saugeen fish. Now, if you're into cookie cutter stockers, then yeah the US is a great place to fish, lol.
kickingfrog Posted August 30, 2011 Author Report Posted August 30, 2011 Well how about that, a coffee thread turned to a fishing thread. It's normaly goes the other way.;-)

As far as the giant coffees go, bring 'em on!!
JTorra Posted August 30, 2011 Report Posted August 30, 2011 Ughhh...a large Timmies is too much, never mind a "super sized" portion. Admittedly, it is used a a caffeine delivery mechanism that I use when in a jam.

Rod Caster Posted August 30, 2011 Report Posted August 30, 2011 I'm glad they didn't bring it here, otherwise the junkies would be blocking my driveway even more than they already do.

Now, if you're into cookie cutter stockers, then yeah the US is a great place to fish, lol. Lol, did you go fishing there just once?? Some Erie tribs have some incredible scenery, and some unbelievable fishing.... although its not as quiet as it was 15-20 years ago. And I find the fish can definately hold a candle to a Notty or Saugeen fish, having beached many of them over the years! You have clearly never hit a 20 in a trib on the south shore of lake O.

Muskieman Posted August 30, 2011 Report Posted August 30, 2011 My bud Terry brought me one from Sudbury 24 Oz XL I have 2 XL 3x3 every morning (from previous coffee topics hasn't changed), my wife has a M/ Mocha ... 6$... add a after supper run to that and ya got 10$/ day... that's 300$/Mo .... X 12 + ? ... now who's good at math? ... see what I mean? For me, a 24 Oz will replace 2x regular XL's for a Toonie.. that translates to about say... 700-800$/yr toward my spring shopping spree.......... I'm all for this Idea ...It did the trick for me.. But........... I'm still angry at myself/spouse for allowing ourselves to spend this much on COFFEE...per year ... really. This cuts into my ,Beer / Smokes / Miscellaneous budget. Does anyone else have this problem? Randy
mercman Posted August 30, 2011 Report Posted August 30, 2011 Not me Randy. I make my coffee at home,2 double vanilla cappucinos, and at work, i have a Bunn-o-matic that i keep full for my customers for free. never drink Tims coffee, it sucks.
kickingfrog Posted August 30, 2011 Author Report Posted August 30, 2011 Wow Randy, you may need a wrist brace.
Teressa Posted August 31, 2011 Report Posted August 31, 2011 But........... I'm still angry at myself/spouse for allowing ourselves to spend this much on COFFEE...per year ... really. This cuts into my ,Beer / Smokes / Miscellaneous budget. Does anyone else have this problem? __________________________________________________ Actually Randy, I was like that til about the beginning of Aug LOL. Every time my bf & I went to Sudbury we would get him a XL 3x3 and myself a XL French for a cost of $4.05. I figured we were roughly spending about $80 per month just on Timmies. If we took my daughter with us, more. I'd had enough, so one day I told bf to order his coffee if he wanted, but that I was giving it up except for very occasionally. Bf still gets a coffee for himself, just not as often. So far this month, I have had 1 french. I figure 1 per month is a nice treat...I don't really miss it. Soon it will be giving up smoking and that will save even more. But for now, giving up timmies is enough.
Billy Bob Posted August 31, 2011 Report Posted August 31, 2011 Oh I'm into cookie cutter stockers lol Less filling and taste great....
Billy Bob Posted August 31, 2011 Report Posted August 31, 2011 More like the US everyday... Sad really. Wait until the Texas Size Timmy's coffee.........
