February 28, 2005 - Tim Hortons customers across Canada and the United States started rolling up the rims of their Tim Hortons coffee cups today in hopes of winning a prize as part of the chain's annual Roll Up The Rim To Win® promotion.
During the contest, customers in Canada who buy a medium, large or extra large coffee or any hot drink, and customers in the United States who buy a small, medium or large coffee or any hot drink at Tim Hortons get a chance to win from over 25 million available prizes which include 30 GMC Envoy vehicles, 100 Panasonic Plasma Theatres, 500 cash prizes of $1,000, 7,500 Coleman Camping Packages and Tim Hortons food prizes including coffee, donuts, muffins and cookies.
"Promotions like Tim Hortons Roll Up The Rim To Win® contest are tremendously popular with our loyal customers," said Meagen Lewandowski, Tim Hortons Corporate Communications Officer. "It's really a double win, because they get a great tasting cup of our signature blend coffee and a chance to win a prize all at once!"

"It's so exciting to see the reaction on a customer's face when they win a prize," added Lewandowski. "People are happy when they win a donut or a coffee, so you can imagine how thrilling it is when a customer wins a grand prize! In addition, customers can watch the winners list grow at each store on our special Roll Up The Rim To Win® winners count display. Winning really does make great coffee even better!"
