I agree with u here Hon, it is way over priced, and it's also a pain in the butt to order a Large reg coffe, so a couple of cent extra for timmy's is cool

I dont like starbucks for two reasons:
1. they are ridiculously over priced. Its not like you piss gold once youre done with coffee... its regular coffee beans.. theyre not even magical or nothing!
2. Starbucks is a huge corporation that can afford to pay their coffee growers (ie. people in El Salvador, Nicaragua etc) WAY WAY more than they pay for their coffee now.
There is this place down on St. Clair, right by Super Latin Music... its this quaint little coffee shop and the owner is a super supporter of paying the workers a fair amount for their coffee. If a little independet shop like this can do it, why cant a huge corporation like Starbucks do it?
@ Colo _ I can't belive u like ese coffee de Strabucks. I've tried el dulce con leche & it was but it could just be my taste. Althou I LOVE the chilled mocha latte they sell in those prepacked bottles in pharmacy's.

I dont drink the coffee coffee. I drink the lattes, which is espresso with a whole lot of milk. I also love their iced drinks. I usually drink them though on days that i need to really stay awake.

It sucks that theyre raising their prices, but I think its still well worth it. Timmy's is still much cheaper than Starbucks or Timothys etc... so a couple more cents wouldnt make much of difference to me.
The prices for the coffee are pretty reasonable, but the food prices are ridiculous. Y ni que fueran la gran cosa. How dare you diss Starbucks. If it wasnt for them i wouldnt have the pleasure of sipping on my delicious Tall Dulce de Leche non fat latte, and dont skimp on the whipped cream. Pleez and shank you.

Tim Hortons fans will be paying more for their daily double-doubles and doughnuts as of next Monday, when the company boosts its prices in Atlantic Canada, Ontario and Manitoba.
The price increases range from four to seven cents, the company said Wednesday. The prices and affected products vary by region.
Hot drink prices, including coffee and tea, will rise in Manitoba, Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, Newfoundland and Labrador and Prince Edward Island.
In Ontario, the increases will come on the food menu, affecting products such as Timbits and cookies.
The pricier menu comes less than two weeks after the previously cash-only chain announced that it will start accepting MasterCard at some restaurants. The company, based in southern Ontario city of Oakville, said approximately 500 locations now accept the credit card and more locations will be added throughout the summer.
Tim Hortons spokeswoman Rachel Douglas said the introduction of credit cards and plans for a prepaid debit card by the end of the year aren't linked to the rising prices.
"Oh, absolutely no relation, this price increase has to do with operating costs of the business in our stores," she told CBCNews.ca.
"Overall operating costs, you know, everything that goes into running a retail business, everything is increasing."
Douglas said it would be the first price increase in the affected regions in a while. In Atlantic Canada, the most recent price bump happened in October 2005, while prices in Ontario and Manitoba haven't changed since 2004.
Overall sales for Tim Hortons are on the rise, at 6.3 per cent since 2006, according to the company's first quarter results. Net income is down by 6.8 per cent over the same period, at $59.3 million US.
