Tim's Credit Card

[crankcall]

There was no good times in 1974 , the US energy crisis ruined cars , the Brits were still trying to sell 650 twins and platform shoes were a thing . 1974 sucked . So did ‘75 .

Remember the horrible chicory coffee at McDonalds?
It's ironic that they now serve the same coffee that made Tim Horton's famous and Tim's now serves an inferior product.

What was the worst? Country style? Somewhere that served mother parkers?

Coffee Time is the worst. McD's is the best (IMHO).

1974 sucked

In 1974 the weed sucked, and was expensive for sucky weed... but the buck a hit was acid was good AND you still get 'ludes.

... then along came DISCO... and GOOD cheap coke.
It's all perspective MAN

Now very good pot is cheap but making it legal sucked (try to ignore the pun) all the fun out of it.

... OH... and we got the first cr125s in Canada in '74. Things weren't ALL bad.
You could buy a Ducati Imola for $3500CDN... if you could find one

I think that was one of the main reasons they legalized it. No more being a teenage rebel if it's legal.

Also Ford introduced the Pinto and Maverick

And in 1974; Tim Horton DIED. Crashed his Pantera on the QEW, stoned and drunk. A true Canadian.

That’s a myth, mc,d didn’t take over tims old brand.

No, Tim Hortons did not sell its coffee recipe to McDonald's

Tim Hortons wants you to know that it did not sell any aspect of its closely-guarded coffee recipe – including its supplier, blends and beans – to its competitor, McDonald’s.

I read about it on the internet so it must be true!
Tim's has gone down hill and McD coffee has got a lot better regardless of the cause.
It may be that coffee without the Blueberry Fritter is just not the same.
Drinking coffee out of a paper cup is like drinking whine out of styrofoam.

You've done a lot of research, Almost every credit card I can think of now has some sort of "rewards" so no surprise to see a Tim's card.
These "Branded" cards seem to be a trend towards younger clients that typically don't have a grasp on financial responsibility, so the 26% interest make a lot of sense as most users will likely not pay the balance off each payment cycle and I am sure Tim's get's a cut.

Most of these are just data capture tools the Finacial part is just a bouns if you fall into the trap.

Switching from ground a year ago to ground now makes a big difference.

Qu'est-ce que c'est?

In 1974 my mom got a comet GT , 302 V8 . It was 140hp off the lot . By December 74 Dad had 300ish hp coming out of it . By the 1977 the only thing not rusted out were the tires .

I hated Disco, but I loved the clubs . No idea where my powder blue jacket went.

Just stayed away from open flames ?

I had a base model Maverick (no radio but upgraded tires)
The straight 6 went like stink but the brakes where from the van they sold at the time.
After total brake fade while towing a trailer with dirt bikes I sold it and bought a Volvo P1800ES

Check the best before dates on ground coffee. They are often a year or more out.

As long as they're sealed does it matter ?
