My husband buys 2 x-lrgs everyday, one for himself and he brings me one back home and we have only won free coffee and donuts as well. I did here that someone had won a vehicle from around here.

Well, I don't feel so bad anymore. Yet again this am I get to play again.
Coffee and fish are my only "needless" expenses.

The best run I had was about a month ago where I won a free coffee with a free coffee.
 W00t!Seems like the contest is done here in Cowtown though, every Timmie's I've been to in the last week has been out of rim cups, just back to regular cups. Last I checked though there were 30 of 35 cars won, 67 out 100 boats, several hundred gift cards left .. seems to me those remaining winning cups must still be out there somewhere?

In garbage cans I bet,, it's amazing how many people throw out the cup without rolling the rim.

I don't participate in it :|
I spent some time working in Las Vegas working specifically on odds, and then spent 5 years around the world working for speciality insurance firms underwriting those promotions. Not to be a downer or anything - but I'm better off hoping my ich infested kole tang is not going to spread it to any of the other tankmates. Least I know I have a 1:2 chance.

Well, you can't win if you don't buy a ticket or in this case if you don't buy a coffee. I like the coffee so if I win another coffee or a donut, it's just a happy bonus. Otherwise, if say I didn't care for coffee, I probably wouldn't bother just because of the promotion. But they say the odds of winning a coffee are 1 in 9, that's not too bad, could be worse.
I've done terrible in previous years maybe having won one coffee throughout the entire promotion, but this year I did ok, think I made off with about 6 or 7 free coffees (and my personal favourite, the two in a row, that probably won't ever happen again!)  My strategy of drinking 12 XL double-doubles daily finally started to pay off!
