No more than six cups a day for me...

Has anyone ever noticed that when you go into a perfume/cologne store, There is usually a container of coffee beans to chew on.

I never saw anything like that in any perfume store I ever went.
Must be a local custom...
You all live in such exotic countries! ::)



I don't think I've ever been in a perfume store.

Is Tim Horton's more comparable to Krispy Kreme or Dunkin' Do'nuts?

I think Starbucks would be the nearest US equivalent, wouldn't it?  (Watch now all the Canadians are going to get mad at me for comparing Tim Horton's to Starbucks     >:D)

You have a point. Starbucks is in canada too, well mostly inside Chapters book stores, and if I was to buy a plain coffe, it would come close. Although, Starbucks specialty coffes are da bomb!  I just dont go there often because a specialty coffe there is from like 3-8 bucks >:( Although if I lived in the states, That would be my only choice for coffe, and i'd better hav a good paying job to afford it O0

I've been to Tim Horton's when I was in Canada. Nothing special there. I would compare it to Dunkin' Donuts.  Starbuck's has a distinctive taste that I like; because it is so strong! It also has at least twice the caffeine level that most other coffee has. But if you buy Starbuck's in the bag and make it at home, it doesn't taste much different then Maxwell House.

Evidentley this softens your orofractors(sense of smell) and allows you to smell the fragrance better.

I've never heard that one, but I have seen little containers of coffee beans where you can dispose the cologne samples you have sprayed on paper strips so it will somewhat neutralize the surrounding area.
How is that Hopey / Changey thing working for you?

I haven't heard of that either JDog, though I can't remember being in a perfume or cologne store. Must be something new. I've usually bought my colognes or perfumes at the bigger department stores.

Hey, Tim Hortons Is Good. You Probably Went And Got A What I Like To Call The "Bottom-Of-The-Pot Coffe", Which Is Where You Get The Stuff That Has Been Setteling At The Bottom, And Gets That Burnt Taste, Which Then Yea, You Could Compare That To A Dunkin DOughnuts Coffe >:D I Find The Best Time To Go To Timmies Is During Lunch, Because It Is A Little Slower, And 90% Of The Time You Wont Get The Coffe From The Bottom Of The Pot. I Find If You Go In The Morning, And You Have 30 Customers In Front Of You, Then You Have A 10% Chance Of Getting A Good Coffe.

I would have to say neither. Their coffe is superior to all other Coffe companies. It is unique, just ask my dad. If I even think of buying a coffe somewhere else my dad calls me a traitor lol. He never buys a coffe anywhere but there, and if he runs out of coffe change he goes nuts! Their coffe is addictive! He even has a mug that will hold a whole pot of their delicious coffe. In all my trips to the states with my dad, I have never had a coffe that would compare to the smooth taste of Tim Hortons Coffe.

Ryan does make a point about the abundance of Tim Hortons in Canada. You cant go a few blocks without seeing one. There is a Tim Hortons in Toledo Ohio near my old high school and it would be pack at 7am before school. I was never a fan of TH coffee but they did have good pastries especially the cheese danish.

Tim Horton's is a decent place. I seem to remember them as the only oases on the Queen's Highway in rural Ontario.

Plus they have free wi-fi.

My only disappointment is that aside from coffee, there are few drink choices. (Stupid reflux coffee restriction.)

Currently fasting because of Ramadan but normally I have 3-4 cups a day. I usually have tea in the morning because it's just more refreshing. I also like latte's and capacinos
