Recently, Tim Horton's the biggest coffee shop in Canada has brought back the "Roll Up the Rim to Win" contest, where basically you purchase a hot beverage and when you finish drinking it, you roll the rim of the cup up to see if you have won a prize. They give away cars, gift certificates, free food/beverages, GPS systems, bikes, and televisions. The contest rules state that the odds of winning are 1 in 9. I haven't won a damn thing so I have decided that if I were to write a letter to Tim Horton's it would sound like this.
Dear Mr. Tim Horton's,
I am a frequent customer at many of your locations and I always purchase a large double double and currently your promotion of the "Roll up the rim to Win" contest states that the odds of winning are 1 in 9. So let me tell you this, in the last two weeks I have purchased approximately 20 coffees, so according to your odds of winning I should have won at least twice now. Well I have not won a damn thing. Not even a freaking cookie, like what is a cookie worth 30 cents. I am demanding that you reward me for my frequent patronage. And I want more than a damn coffee I want $27.80 back because that is the cost of 20 large double double coffees taxes included. And don't even get me started on the amount I spend on your damn bagels with cream cheese.
Sincerely yours, a very disgruntled customer,
The Adult in Question
Okay I'm pretty sure Tim Horton is dead, but I would write this to their head office or something if I cared enough.

I know they are required to post the odds of winning, but sometimes it just isn't helpful!
the odds are always with Timmy Ho...
Yeah, he died in a car accident on the Gardiner Expressway... on the Humber Bump. The Humber Bump is gone now but dude, back in the 80s, in that big old Pontiac, we used to drive into the city and take the bump at a good clip and try to get her airborne.
I don't think anybody would have named a donut shop after me...
If we win anything big we're gonna sell it and get out of credit card debt. AND FIX UP MY HORSE TRAILER because oddly, Timmy H does not give away free horse trailers.
Heidi- lmao. I would sell anything I won as well but I haven't even won a freaking donut/cookie/coffee/muffin etc
They give away cars? Must be some good fucking coffee. Can you send me a pound? ;)
My local Indian Tandoori has named a curry after me last year.
The menu states :
Four Dinners Book Me A Plot In The Cemetery Matey (extremely hot)
I kid you not. (I'll get a copy of the menu and post it I think)
Anyroad, you win one of those and you may lose the ability to breathe.
With the exception of me they have cooked seven and two ended up in A&E with breathing difficulties.
I am so proud.
