Tim Hortons and McDonald’s will be going toe-to-toe for the next two weeks.
A freshly brewed “coffee war” between the fast-food giants is underway.
Tim’s opened its 24th edition of its “Roll Up The Rim” contest yesterday, and at the same time, McDonald’s started handing out free coffee.
This two week free-java campaign is McDonald’s third such giveaway promotion in a year.
570 News conducted an informal poll this morning at a side-by-side Tim’s and McDonald’s location in Kitchener.
People choosing the Tim’s contest over a free coffee say they simply prefer Tim’s coffee, or enjoy the fun of the contest.
People choosing McDonald’s say free coffee is the best prize.
