When Timmy starts starts selling real coffee, I might think about it.

I know.. it is sad how a company who wasn't even owned by a canadian for the last 5 years can brainwash a nation into thinking bad coffee is good.

The wendys people did a great job keeping the sale relatively quiet and most people don't seem to know tims is not Canadian anymore.

I don't think they sell coffee though do they???

I don't drink Tim's either. Good Old Maxwell House, at home, Unlimeted supply of Nabob at work. Good to know I save $5k a year LOL

Notice how the OP hasn't been back to reply to his own thread.. maybe his significant other tied him up..

I thought that my FW addiction was bad.. once I got into the Salt thing I've been going nuts!

Put it this way.. $5000-$6000 a year is far less than other hobbies. You could be out drinking every night with your buddies.. at least you're at home doing water changes.

Also Tim's is currently incorporated in the US but will move back to Canada to take advantage of Canadian tax rates

So then will they start selling coffee now?

I find not much beats a Timmie's double-double when it's done right. Starbucks, meh, it's nice, but too much coin and I can't really get into the double-tall venti latte this that and the other terminology. Is a tall a small? I never really know.

As for the reef hobby though .. I'm pretty sure if I hadn't had the tanks the last ten years I'd uh .. probably have way nicer other things. Yeah, I think I'm not going there. No tracking the spending, I'll just weep if I do.
