Why is there a Tim Horton's every 20 feet in Canada?

Is that the start of a joke or an actual question?

Good question. Tim Horton's is actually way cooler than Starbucks. It was genuinely refreshing to go through a fast-food drive-thru and have access to moderately healthy food instead of the garbage that is available in the U.S.
It just has always struck me as strange whenever one chain is EVERYWHERE. In Massachussettes for example, there are Dunkin Donuts and "24/7" stores literally on every block.

This one time Coca-Cola had this bottlecap promotion where you could win free coke. Everytime I got a coke, it would lead to another free coke. I drank coke for free for like a MONTH.
I thought I was all slick. And then the promotion ended. And I was hooked.
So who was really the 'winner'? 
(Also, Tim Horton's sucks and the only edible doughnut is the Krispy Kreme doughnut. Face.)

I somehow remember that either coke or pepsi had something where you collected bottlecaps, or points, or some shit. They said that if you collected enough of them, you could trade them in for stuff. The best and most expensive item was an F-16 jet... which wasn't actually serious, because they thought it was impossible.
Some guy fucking managed to do it and tried to claim his F-16 (I admire this man for trying so hard!). Problem was that the F-16 wasn't exactly available to civilians, the soda company didn't even have one to give him. I saw that on the news... I don't know what ever happened with that. I imagine they gave him a bunch of money so he didn't sue their sorry asses.

Oh, man. I miss Tim Horton's so much sometimes. They haven't them here in phoenix but they do where I lived in ohio.
I could go for a large double-double and an everything bagel with cream cheese right now...

About 12 years ago I won a pocket tv. I ended up selling the tv for $75, kids like money more than little tv's. I won $500 on a slot machine a few years ago too.

What? But I swear, I didn't just hear about that somewhere, I distinctly remember seeing it on TV. Of course that doesn't mean it's true... but I would have figured pepsi would squelch any of that sort of thing if it was false.
*edit* upon reading the snopes article, note that it says that it is false that pepsi GAVE him the jet. Of course it's false, pepsi couldn't get a jet, uncle sam would have a anheurism. Civilians just plain do not get current military technology, ever. Demilitarizing a harrier means turning it into a lawn ornament that can't fly. The VTOL gear cannot be removed without also voiding it's ability to produce forward thrust.
(I'm an aviation buff )
It says that the court ruled in favor of pepsi, and that the pentagon made pepsi stop the whole harrier part of the promotion.

This is completely untrue. I would know since I work for tim horton's. At least in the U.S. I can tell you that's false.

back in junior high I would get 7up bottles and look through the bottle to find the winner. I won everytime. What can I say... "I'm lucky"
The coolest thing I ever won was $306 on payday from $7 dollars worth of lotto tickets.
